The UC Berkeley Center for Health Management and Policy Research (CHAMP) aspires to improve the performance of U.S. public health and health care systems through rigorous empirical research and by translating evidence into policy and practice to advance health equity and improve population health. 

Mission

CHAMP conducts rigorous research studies and evaluations of U.S. health care and public health payment and policy reforms, delivery system change, and implementation of innovations, with a focus on assessing impacts on population health and health equity. We work to maximize our impact through publications, presentations at conferences, roundtables, meetings, webinars, media, and discussions with private and public sector action/thought leaders.
