    Jose F. Figueroa, MD, MPH is an Assistant Professor of Health Policy and Management at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health (HSPH) and an Assistant Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School (HMS). He is a practicing Hospitalist and Associate Physician at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital, where he serves as the Faculty Director of the BWH Medicine Residency Management & Leadership Pathway. Dr. Figueroa is also the Faculty Director of the Healthcare Quality & Outcomes Lab at HSPH and the Co-Director of the International Collaborative on Costs, Outcomes, and Needs in Care (ICCONIC), an international research collaborative across 12 high-income countries. He received his M.D. from Harvard Medical School and his M.P.H. from the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. He completed his residency in Internal Medicine at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital.

    His main research interests focus on understanding the drivers of healthcare spending and poor clinical outcomes among low-income and historically marginalized populations with complex clinical needs. To date, this has included work on racial and ethnic minorities, Dueal-Eligible for Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries, and people with frailty, major disabilities, and serious mental illness. His research also focuses on evaluating how policy interventions and payment reform aimed at improving the quality of care and controlling costs are working, and in particular, how they affect safety-net clinicians and hospitals. To support his work, Dr. Figueroa is funded by grants from the Commonwealth Fund, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, the Harvard Center for AIDS Research, the Laura and John Arnold Foundation, the Episcopal Health Foundation, and the National Institutes of Health.

    LeaRRn Grand Rounds: Stephen Hunter, PT, DPT, presents “It Takes A Village: Team-Based Clinical Research Within A Learning Health System”

    Sustained improvements in evidence-based clinical practice is not an easy task. This requires assembling a research team balanced with frontline caregivers, researchers, clinical leaders, analysts and statisticians. This team will guide data collection on current performance, translate that data to knowledge and most importantly, support providers to apply that knowledge in clinical performance, resulting in better patient outcomes at a lower cost. This talk will review these principles supported by case studies and published research.
