What We Fund
SHARE funds studies that seek to address timely health reform issues surrounding coverage and access that are specific to the state level, drawing out broader lessons that can help guide states as they plan and implement various health reform strategies. Previously funded SHARE projects have studied, for example, the ACA’s new income definition, the expansion of dependent coverage to young adults, and the use of auto-enrollment into Medicaid. The next round of SHARE funding will continue to support research that will guide ACA implementation and health reform, in general, in states. SHARE will fund complex, in-depth projects with highly developed methodological approaches, as well as short-turnaround, higher-level policy analyses that have immediate policy applications. We hope that the research findings and deliverables from these projects will provide timely, useful information for state and national policy-makers.
