HPC Advisory Council Membership

The HPC Advisory Council consists of representatives from across the health care continuum.

The Massachusetts Health Policy Commission’s Advisory Council is a diverse group of health care leaders who meet quarterly to discuss the most important health policy issues of the day and advise the HPC’s work. The goal of the Advisory Council is to enhance the HPC’s robust policy agenda by incorporating varied perspectives on the issues facing the health care system and Massachusetts residents. The Advisory Council provides an opportunity for open dialogue and engagement among health care industry stakeholders which, in turn, informs the work of the HPC in meaningful ways.

The Advisory Council supports the agency’s work by:

  • Providing input on the HPC’s operations and policy initiatives;
  • Contributing feedback on proposed investment priorities;
  • Facilitating connections between HPC staff, HPC commissioners, and health care industry participants and stakeholders; and
  • Serving as a network for communicating the HPC’s work to the larger community.
