“The Center for Studying Health System Change (HSC) is a nonpartisan policy research organization located in Washington, D.C. HSC designs and conducts studies focused on the U.S. health care system to inform the thinking and decisions of policy makers in government and private industry.” The HSC has conducted household and physician surveys periodically since 1996. In addition, it conducts interviews and site visits in twelve cities. Based on this research, the HSC publishes issue briefs, research reports and journal articles on a variety of topics related to health systems such as health care costs, health information technology, and emerging market trends.
