Kevin Kerber, MD, MS - Biography
Kevin A. Kerber, MD, MS
Dr. Kevin Kerber is Associate Professor and health services researcher in the Department of Neurology at the University of Michigan Health System. He is the principal investigator on NIH and AHRQ funded studies that involve a variety of methodologies including clinical epidemiology, clinical decision rule (risk stratification) development, interventional implementation science, and patient-oriented behavioral science. The clinical focus of his PI work is vestibular and cerebellar disorders. This work identified gaps between our evidence-base and current practice, and defined subsequent targets leading to his current interventional work. His team is now developing and implementing interventions at the physician and patient levels using rigorous scientific methods. The long-term goal is to achieve efficient, effective, and sustainable processes with optimal patient outcomes. In recognition of his work, he was awarded the Derek Denny-Brown Young Neurological Scholar Award from the American Neurological Association. He is fellowship trained in Neuro-Otology under Robert W. Baloh, MD, at UCLA. He also completed a Masters Degree in Health and Health Care Research, which is the U-M Health Services Research training program, and a healthcare policy fellowship at the Center for Healthcare Research and Transformation (CHRT). He collaborates broadly on health services research in neurology and other specialty areas including headache, stroke, neurologic practice patterns, and payment policy. He also serves as a co-Advisor for the American Academy of Neurology’s Team RUC (Relative Value Unit Update Committee).
