Dr. Blewett
directs the
State Health Access Data Assistance Center,
funded by The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation

assistance to states on efforts to measure
and monitor health insurance coverage and
inform state health policy. Additional
research interests include studying the
impact of the growing Midwest Latino
population on the delivery of health care
services; studying the impact of SCHIP
implementation; understanding elements of
underinsurance and evaluating the future of
the safety-net in meeting the needs of the
growing number of uninsured.
