The Technical Advisory Group was established by the Pennsylvania Health Care Cost Containment Council to respond to issues related to research methodology, statistical expertise, and risk-adjustment methods. This group brings together seasoned professionals (including physicians, biostatisticians, and health services researchers) who offer advice in a setting that encourages and contributes to methodological advances and keeps the Council's reports on the cutting edge.
