He presently serves as Director of Aligning Forces for Quality: The Regional Market Project. This regional initiative is one of fourteen in the country supported by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation to align incentives, engage consumers, and measure performance for improving quality in the primary care environment. Brammer is also Principal Investigator for a series of studies to aid the Department of Jobs and Family Services in the design of Ohio Medicaid's pay-for-performance (P4P) strategy. This work includes evaluating metrics for appropriateness in Medicaid, surveying health plans on their P4P approach, and conducting focus groups with physicians and other stakeholders on P4P design characteristics. Brammer is Co-Director of the Humana/UC Physician Leadership Program; Co-Principal Investigator for multiple grants to improve medical education in healthcare improvement; and leads the Institute's monthly Health Policy Forum. Other recent projects include a study for the Institute of Medicine entitled, "The US Performance Measurement System for Behavioral Health Care," and a white paper for the National Rural Health Association on primary care redesign. After several years in management, Brammer is now completing a PhD in organizational behavior focusing on measuring and improving performance in healthcare. He currently holds a master's degree in organizational psychology from the University of Cincinnati.
