Nicole M. Benson studies how mental health care is organized, accessed, and paid for, with particular attention to psychiatric emergency care, inpatient services, and access for children, adolescents, and young adults. Her work often uses healthcare utilization and insurance claims data to examine disparities, costs, and the effects of policies such as telehealth rules and insurance design on patients' access to psychiatric services. Much of the research is published in clinical and health-policy journals aimed at improving how mental health systems function.
