- Overview

I am interested in the use of clinical and administrative databases in ways that would help support optimal decision-making in the provision of healthcare to paediatric populations.
The projects I am involved with aim at using this information-base in evaluating health programs, understanding healthcare utilization patterns where cost savings are possible, exploring relationships between quality of care and costs, and providing baseline information that could be used in developing interventions to promote health.
