As a health services researcher with training in health economics, Dr. Yu's research broadly focuses on how changes in the payment and delivery of health care services affect access to health and health outcomes for vulnerable patient populations.
Dr. Yu's current research interests revolve around three major themes. First, she studies the relationship between telehealth use and access to care, health care costs, and quality of care. Second, she is interested in health system strategies that improve medical care and quality of life for Medicare beneficiaries. Third, she examines how the acquisition of provider organizations impacts the quality and cost of care.
