Our Mission
The Center for Health Policy (CHP), a research center of the Columbia University School of Nursing, works with institutional partners at the local, state, and national levels to develop and evaluate health policy initiatives as well as translate research findings into effective policies. The CHP sees research as an integral component of its mission. Center faculty engage in health services research that broadens students' educational experiences and expands the state of knowledge about how health services systems work. Faculty research on issues related to the organization, delivery and cost-effectiveness of health services is fundamental to the quality of the program. The dissemination and translation of new knowledge through multiple sources contributes to efforts to improve the availability, affordability, and effectiveness of health services and develop policies that reinforce these objectives.
