OVERVIEW

| My research interests include 1) legal
and regulatory issues affecting health care access and service
delivery; 2) design and regulation of long-term care services
and financing, especially for people with Alzheimer's disease
and related dementias; and 3) rights under the Americans with
Disabilities Act, especially related to health care and higher
education, for people with disabilities. |
