Seth Freedman is a health economist who studies how healthcare markets work, focusing on how the supply of medical services (such as intensive care beds or new surgical procedures) affects the care patients receive, how technology like electronic medical records changes doctors' decisions, and how policies such as Medicaid expansion affect access to care. His work also examines how quality information—including hospital ratings and social media—shapes healthcare choices, using data-driven economic analysis. Related work extends to financial markets, including peer-to-peer lending.
Publication activity peaked around 2017-2018, declined through 2020-2022, and then rose again in 2023-2024, averaging about 2.8 publications per year over the last five years.
