Michael Anne Kyle

Michael Anne Kyle, PhD, RN is an Innovation Faculty member at the Penn Center for Cancer Care Innovation (PC3I) and Assistant Professor in the Department of Medical Ethics and Health Policy at the University of Pennsylvania. She is currently focused on defining and measuring patient administrative burden in cancer care delivery, its organizational antecedents, and consequences for patient well-being and outcomes. In this effort, she combines field research (e.g., interviews, surveys) and administrative datasets (e.g., claims). Concordant with the mission of PC3I, the aim of her work is to produce evidence identifying and motivating actionable organizational or policy targets for clinical leaders and policymakers.

Most recently, Dr. Kyle completed a fellowship in the Department of Health Care Policy at Harvard Medical School, where her work was supported by a K99/R00 National Institute of Health (NIH) Career Development Award. She earned her Ph.D. in Health Policy and Management at Harvard Business School, before which she received an MPH from the Harvard TH Chan School of Public Health and an MSN from the University of Pennsylvania. In addition to her academic work, she remains a practicing critical care nurse. She was also a 2015-2016 student fellow at the Petrie-Flom Center for Health Law Policy, Biotechnology and Bioethics at Harvard Law School.
