About
Dr. Katie S. Murray is a urologic oncologist and surgeon-scientist whose research focuses on optimizing surgical outcomes for prostate cancer, particularly through robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP). Her work examines how procedural complexity, as captured by CPT modifier 22, influences perioperative outcomes—a niche but critical area for refining surgical coding and resource allocation. In her most-cited study, she investigated the impact of modifier 22 on RALP outcomes, contributing to a deeper understanding of how case difficulty affects patient recovery and hospital costs. While her citation count reflects a focused, emerging body of work, her contributions are valued for their practical implications in surgical practice and healthcare economics. Dr. Murray’s research bridges the gap between clinical urology and health services research, offering insights that help surgeons and administrators better anticipate and manage complex cases. Her dedication to evidence-based improvements in prostate cancer care underscores her role as a thoughtful clinician committed to advancing surgical quality and patient safety.
