Prior to joining Milliman, Bridget was the Director of Medical Economics and Outcomes at a digital behavioral health platform, where she evaluated the impact of the intervention on patient reported outcomes and healthcare cost and utilization. Previously, she worked at Health Leads, a national non-profit, where she managed the research and analytics portfolio for social determinants of health interventions in clinical and community settings. In these roles, Bridget has collaborated closely with stakeholders to inform the design and interpretation of research, ensuring that results could be translated into meaningful action.
