JOSEPH P. NEWHOUSE
John D. MacArthur Professor of Health Policy and
Management and Chair, Committee on Higher Degrees
in Health Policy, Malcolm Wiener Center for Social
Policy, Kennedy School of Government, Harvard
Univeristy.
Dr. Newhouse is the John D. MacArthur Professor of
Health Policy and Management at Harvard
University, Director of the Division of Health
Policy Research and Education, chair of the
Committee on Higher Degrees in Health Policy, and
Director of the Interfaculty Initiative in Health
Policy. He is a member of the faculties of the
John F. Kennedy School of Government, the Harvard
Medical School, the Harvard School of Public
Health, and the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, as
well as a Faculty Research Associate of the
National Bureau of Economic Research. He received
B.A. and Ph.D. degrees in Economics from Harvard
University. Following his Bachelors degree, he
spent a year at Gφethe University in
Frankfurt/Main, Germany as a Fulbright Scholar.
Dr. Newhouse spent the first twenty years of his
career at RAND, where he designed and directed the
RAND Health Insurance Experiment, a project that
ran from 1971 to 1988 that studied the
consequences of different ways of financing
medical services. From 1981 to 1985 he was Head of
the RAND Economics Department.
In 1981 he became the founding editor of the
Journal of Health Economics, which he continues to
edit. He is currently the vice-chair of the
Medicare Payment Advisory Commission, which
reviews Medicare payment policy and makes
recommendations to the Congress. This Commission
resulted from the 1997 merger of two predecessor
commissions, the Prospective Payment Assessment
Commission, which made recommendations to the
Congress concerning the payment of hospital and
other institutional providers, and the Physician
Payment Review Commission, which performed a
similar function for physicians. Newhouse chaired
the former Commission in 1996 and 1997 and served
as a Commissioner on the latter between 1993 and
1996. He has been elected to the Institute of
Medicine of the National Academy of Sciences, and
has served two terms on its governing Council. He
has also been elected a Fellow of the American
Academy of Arts and Sciences. He is a past
President of the Association for Health Services
Research and of the International Health Economics
Association. He is the American Economics
Association representative to the American
Association for the Advancement of Science. His
biography appears in Whos Who in Economics, which
includes the 1,000 most cited living economists.
He is currently a regent of the National Library
of Medicine.
He was the first recipient of the David N. Kershaw
Award and Prize of the Association for Public
Policy and Management in 1983, which honors
persons under 40 who have made a distinguished
contribution to the field of public policy
analysis and management. In 1988 he received the
Baxter Health Services Research Prize for an
unusually significant contribution to the improved
medical care of the public through innovative
health services research, as well as the
Administrator's Citation from the Health Care
Financing Administration, the Agency's highest
award. He was the co-recipient of the
Article-of-the-Year Award for 1989 from the
Association for Health Services Research and in
1992 received the Associations Distinguished
Investigator Award. In 1995 he was named an
initial Distinguished Fellow of the Association.
In 1995 he received the Hans Sigrist Foundation
Prize for distinguished scientific achievement, as
well as the American Risk and Insurance
Associations Elizur Wright Award for a
contribution to the risk management and insurance
literature. In 1997 he gave the Walras-Pareto
lectures in Lausanne. In 2000 he was the first
recipient of the Zvi Griliches award and also gave
the Chung Hua lectures in Taipei. From 1989 to
1993 he served as chair of the Health Services
Research Grants Review Committee of the Agency for
Health Care Policy and Research.
