Description of Research Expertise

At University of Pennsylvania I work as a primary care provider, an educator for students and residents, and serve as the Associate Medical Director for Quality for Penn Medicine Primary Care and Director of Population Health in the Division of General Internal Medicine.

My area of expertise is population health. My work focuses on leveraging local quality improvement initiatives, partnership with researchers and insurers, and coordination with multidisciplinary groups and multispecialty providers in developing, studying, and implementing sustainable efforts broadly across health systems.

Current work includes implementation of evidence based outreach modalities for cancer screening and chronic disease at scale aimed to both narrow existing disparities and improve performance in value based contracts.

Locally, I serve on the Measey Primary Care Advisory Board. Nationally, I serve on the 2024 Impact Assessment of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Quality and Efficiency Measures Project on the A Technical Expert Panel (TEP) and a Federal Assessment Steering Committee (FASC).
