About

Andrew Harris is a leading voice in urologic oncology, with a focused expertise in value-based care and surgical outcomes for prostate cancer. His research critically examines the intersection of clinical practice and healthcare economics, particularly in robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy. Harris’s seminal work, "Examining and Understanding Value," systematically quantifies how preoperative patient characteristics, intraoperative decisions, and postoperative complications drive the overall cost of robotic prostate surgery—a study that has garnered 17 citations and remains a foundational reference for quality-based reimbursement models. By dissecting the financial impact of surgical variables, he provides actionable insights for optimizing both patient outcomes and resource allocation. His contributions have helped shape contemporary discussions on value-driven surgical care, emphasizing that cost efficiency need not compromise clinical excellence. Harris’s research is essential reading for urologists, health policy analysts, and surgeons navigating the shift toward value-based healthcare, offering a rigorous framework for balancing quality, cost, and patient well-being in modern surgical practice.
