Jeanne Madden, PhD
Dr. Madden is an Instructor in the Department of Population Medicine and works primarily with the Drug Policy Research Group in the area of policy evaluation. At present she is directing a four-year study of the impact of the new Medicare Part D drug benefit on cost-related medication nonadherence. In addition, Dr. Madden is leading an investigation of the relationship between underuse of asthma controller medications and outcomes indicating uncontrolled asthma. She directed a comprehensive study to determine the effects on maternal and infant health outcomes, service utilization, and costs of two policies that, in succession, shortened and then lengthened standard hospital stays at childbirth. Ongoing research includes a related study involving post-cesarean lengths of stay and investigations into the detection and treatment of maternal depression. Dr. Madden also works in the area of international pharmaceuticals policy and methods for measuring medicine prices in low- and middle-income countries. She holds a master's degree in International Health Policy and Economics from the Harvard School of Public Health and a doctoral degree from the Harvard University PhD program in Health Policy.
