Agnė Ulytė is a senior analyst at RAND. Working primarily with RAND Europe, her focus is health services and health care policy research. Key areas of interest are the implementation of new health services and quantifying their impact on patients and health care systems, including in areas such as health services provided in long-term care settings; innovative health care delivery modalities such as telemedicine; and measuring care quality within and between health care systems. Ulytė is experienced working with clinical, administrative and health care claims data, multilevel modelling, literature review, and survey methodologies. At RAND Europe, she is currently working on projects on cancer screening services, health of people affected by thalidomide, treatment of Clostridium difficile infection, remote monitoring for chronic disease patients, and economic returns of health research.
Prior to joining RAND, Ulytė was a postdoc at the Department of Health Care Policy, Harvard Medical School. Her research there focused on health care use and quality in skilled nursing facilities (nursing homes) and telemedicine in the U.S. Before that, Ulytė worked in several coronavirus epidemiology studies at the University of Zurich and Fribourg University in Switzerland. Ulytė's Ph.D. at the Epidemiology, Biostatistics, and Prevention Institute of the University of Zurich focused on systematically assessing and comparing the geographic variation in use of recommended and discouraged health care services in Switzerland. She graduated with a degree in medicine from Vilnius University.
