Improving care delivery processes in health systems

Dr. Ann Annis’ area of research involves the utilization and measurement of care-delivery processes in health systems, especially in regards to interprofessional clinicians other than physicians and providers. Throughout her career, she has contributed to the development and evaluation of multiple clinician-focused healthcare programs and initiatives, at both state and federal levels. Her recent work at the Veteran Affairs Ann Arbor Healthcare System has included the identification of clinician-specific care-delivery models and examination of care-delivery trends in both primary care and inpatient settings.
