Research studies that helped shine a light on the impact of health reform in Massachusetts and industry influence on health care, respectively, were jointly awarded the AcademyHealth HSR (Health Services Research) Impact Award at the 2012 National Health Policy Conference  today in Washington, D.C.  The HSR Impact Award is presented by AcademyHealth in recognition of outstanding positive impact of health services research on health policy or practice. This year, two winners were chosen for the HSR Impact Award:
