Maeve is a skilled mixed-methods researcher with over eight years of experience, specializing in project management and qualitative research methods. At NORC, she has contributed to qualitative data collection and analysis efforts for numerous large scale national evaluations of payment and delivery system reform models for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) as well as managed and supported smaller state-level evaluations. Her research primarily focuses on alternative payment models and value-based care, qualitative research methods and analysis, patient-centered research, and substance use disorder (SUD).
Maeve serves as the project manager for two state-level evaluations—an evaluation of Minnesota’s Medicaid 1115 SUD System Reform Waiver and an evaluation of the impact of American Rescue Plan Act funding on Oregon’s home and community-based services (HCBS) program for the Oregon Health Authority—where she also contributes to mixed-methods analysis and reporting. Maeve is also a qualitative researcher on the mixed-methods evaluation of the ACO REACH Model and provides technical assistance on projects for the CMS Office of Minority Health. She previously supported the Next Generation ACO Model evaluation and has supported work for PCORI, the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation ASPE, the Center for Medicaid and CHIP Services, and the CDC Foundation.
Prior to joining NORC, Maeve worked as a data and policy analyst at Acumen, LLC working primarily on CMS evaluations and with the University of Washington on a USAID-funded research project in rural Tanzania.
