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.
Critical Health Issues in Texas
