Roger Feldman
is the Blue Cross Professor of Health
Insurance and Professor of Economics. Dr.
Feldman was a Marshall Scholar at the London
School of Economics and holds a PhD in
economics from the University of Rochester.
His research covers the organization,
financing, and delivery of health care with
a focus on health insurance. He also studies
competition among health care providers and
insurers. Currently, he is evaluating
several “consumer-driven” health plans,
including one where employers contract
directly with providers to purchase health
care services, and the early experience of a
defined-contribution health plan. Dr.
Feldman’s experience in health care policy
includes serving on the Senior Staff of the
President’s Council of Economic Advisers,
where he was the lead author of a chapter in
the 1985 Economic Report of the President.
From 1988 to 1992, he directed one of the
four national research centers sponsored by
the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid
Services (CMS), and recently he advised CMS
on a demonstration of competitive pricing
for Medicare M+C plans. Dr. Feldman is a
regular contributor to journals in economics
and health services research. His research
has received four “best paper” awards from
the Association for Health Services Research
and the National Institute of Health Care
Management. He has been a consultant to the
U.S. Department of Justice and several state
regulatory agencies regarding health plan
mergers and ownership changes.
