How can today’s health care research influence tomorrow’s health care outcomes? Mathematica’s health care experts will join their peers to address this question at AcademyHealth’s 2024 Annual Research Meeting in Baltimore, Maryland, from June 29 to July 2.

Through a series of policy roundtables, panels, and posters, our experts will highlight how rigorous, creative, and cutting-edge research and evaluation provides decision makers with policy-relevant evidence and recommendations that advance equity, improve health outcomes, and reduce costs.

Discover how we are partnering with clients in the public and private sectors to reimagine the way the world collects, analyzes, and applies data to solve urgent health care challenges.
