Part D, innovative practice models, health policy, managed care and leadership development. Her longstanding research emphasis has been on Medicare Part D as she received, with Co-Principal Investigator Dr. Helene Levens Lipton, a major grant from the Amgen Foundation to work in collaboration with pharmacy schools in California. The goal was to leverage the Medicare Part D expertise of doctor of pharmacy students statewide to help Medicare-eligible people throughout California enroll in the Medicare Part D plans that best meets their needs and their abilities to pay, and seed a spirit of collaboration among pharmacy, medical and nursing students. Since 2013, she has served as the Vice Chair of Clinical Innovation, with a goal to extend her clinical work to develop innovative team-based practice models in other ambulatory and community pharmacy settings. Presently, her research focus is in transitions of pharmacy care from the acute and post-acute setting back into the community with an emphasis on an accurate and portable medication list through these transitions of care.
