Dr. Goold studies the allocation of scarce resources for health. Her early philosophical work, emphasizing the need for communities to participate in informed deliberations about resource spending decisions that affect them, led her to develop an award-winning exercise, CHAT (CHoosing All Together) that has been used to engage communities in setting priorities for the use of limited resources for health research, health insurance, and community health. She has developed, with a community partner, a network of partners from minority and underserved communities in Michigan and engaged these communities in research to inform health policy, including evaluating the expansion of Medicaid in Michigan. Other areas of Dr. Goold's work include empirical evaluation of Medicaid expansion, resource allocation during public health emergencies, public health ethics, physician stewardship, deliberative procedures in bioethics and health policy, and trust in healthcare organizations.
