EHF's research uncovers invaluable insights about health policy and systems, and puts forward real, actionable pathways to deliver advances in health for all Texans. Our research activities and initiatives provide important tools to address health disparities and improve health outcomes across the state.
We’ve produced and funded hundreds of reports focused on health from all angles: non-medical drivers of health, health insurance coverage, rural health, the impact of the Affordable Care Act, life expectancy in Texas neighborhoods, early childhood brain development, Medicaid, and much more.
Featured Report
Almost two thirds of Texans say they skipped or postponed some form of medical care in the past year because of cost. That’s just one of the results of the Episcopal Health Foundation (EHF) annual statewide poll on health policy, affordability, and access in Texas.
