Three thousand health care managers and leaders in the United States and around the world have had their careers shaped in part by Professor Eastaugh, who has taught health finance and economics for more than 25 years. The author of seven books and more than 100 journal articles, Dr. Eastaugh is a nationally acclaimed speaker, consultant and agent of change who has traveled to some 30 countries as part of his health services research.

Professor Eastaugh has won numerous awards, including the American College of Healthcare Executives Edgar Hayhow award for "best health care article of the year." He has been a forceful advocate for universal affordable health insurance, which he believes can be funded through dramatic reductions in health care paperwork and administrative costs. Prior to coming to GW, Dr. Eastaugh taught at Cornell University and was senior staff health economist at the National Academy of Sciences.
