Printable Version HSC Annual Report 1999

HSC and MPR

ince its founding, HSC has been affiliated with Mathematica Policy Research, Inc. Both organizations share a strong commitment to producing objective, high-quality policy research and providing sound information for decision makers. MPR, like HSC, is a wholly owned subsidiary of Mathematica, Inc. MPR has conducted some of the most important evaluations of key U.S. public programs and demonstrations. These studies have focused on issues across the lifespan, from children's health and welfare to long-term care for the elderly.

In addition to shared values, both organizations are housed in the same Washington, D.C., location and have a common administrative infrastructure that includes contracting, human resources, accounting/payroll and facilities management. MPR also has offices in Princeton, N.J., Cambridge, Mass., and Columbia, Md.

MPR staff are key contributors to HSC's data collection and analysis work. Specifically, MPR conducts the Community Tracking Study Household Survey and Insurance Followback Survey on behalf of HSC, and oversees management of the Physician Survey. In addition, HSC draws on MPR staff for specialized assistance, including Frank Potter, senior statistician, for statistical support, and Richard Strouse, vice president, for overall survey management and design support. Finally, MPR is actively participating in HSC's third round of site visits with staff on the site visit teams.

HSC is guided by a board that includes members of Mathematica's board of directors and key MPR staff.
