In the past 10 years, Health Research for Action has conducted several studies evaluating various aspects of publicly funded healthcare in the United States. Many of these studies have investigated beneficiary acceptance of new healthcare delivery mechanisms. 

Some of these studies are ongoing, including a multiyear survey of seniors and people with disabilities who receive both Medicare and Medi-Cal benefits.
