Jalpa Doshi

Jalpa Doshi is a doctoral candidate in the Department of Pharmaceutical Health Services Research at the University of Maryland, Baltimore.  She has a bachelor's background in pharmacy, and received her master's degree in pharmaceutical health services research at the University of Maryland, Baltimore.  She has gained broad research experience having been a part of numerous projects funded by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation in DHHS, The Commonwealth Fund, the Kaiser Family Foundation, state Medicaid programs, the Food and Drug Administration and pharmaceutical companies.  

She has worked extensively with secondary datasets such as the Medicare Current Beneficiary Survey (MCBS), Medicaid data, and commercial claims data.  She has built particular expertise with the MCBS and a newly available nationally representative dataset on drug administrations for long-term care facility residents.  She is currently working on a CMS project to assess the impact of prescription drug coverage on Medicare Part A & B expenditures and a Commonwealth Fund project assessing costs and quality of prescription coverage for the community-dwelling elderly Medicare beneficiaries.  

Some of her recently completed projects include analyses of drug use and expenditure patterns for the disabled Medicare beneficiaries; drug use by institutionalized Medicare beneficiaries across different long-term care settings; and trends in prescription coverage for Medicare beneficiaries.  She has also made presentations at several national meetings such as the Academy of Health Services Research and Health Policy, Drug Information Association, International Society of Pharmacoeconomics and Outcomes Research, and the American Public Health Association.
