I am a clinician-scientist, Associate Professor of Medicine at the Indiana University School of Medicine, Director of the Indiana University Center for Health Services and Outcomes Research, and Principal Investigator of the VA HSR&D Center of Excellence on Implementing Evidence-Based Practice. My clinical and health-services research focuses on measuring and improving the quality, coordination, and delivery of health services. I study the effects of health information and information technology on physicians' practices and patients' outcomes. I have conducted studies of specialty referral, patient-physician videoconferencing, and other forms of telecommunication to improve healthcare. Current research includes development, implementation, and study of information systems to promote clinical handoffs, management of medications, patient-centered care, and clinical decision support.
