Payment Insights Team

Led by CHIBE Associate Director Dr. Amol Navathe, the Payment Insights Team is an interdisciplinary team of experts based in the Perelman School of Medicine whose mission is to utilize insights from economics and behavioral science to analyze existing policy effects and design, test, and evaluate financial and nonfinancial interventions that can improve health care in pragmatic, real-world settings. The Payment Insights Team is committed to doing so in collaboration with health insurer, health system, physician practice, and policymaker partners in order to achieve organizational and societal goals of greater health care value and equity.

Current projects within the Payment Insight Team’s portfolio focus on bundled payments, large-scale redesign of physician and hospital payment, improving identification of the health care safety net, optimal use of nudges in health care, and design of predictive models to drive behavior change. The Payment Insight Team’s work has been featured in JAMA, Science, Health Affairs, Journal of Hospital Medicine, Annals of Internal Medicine, and The New York Times, as well as in many other high-profile and impactful, scientific journals and media outlets.
