About
Lindsey R. Sangaralingham is a health services researcher whose work focuses on the economic and clinical outcomes of surgical and oncologic care. Her research leverages large-scale insurance claims data to uncover cost drivers and practice patterns, with a particular emphasis on cancer treatment and postoperative care. A key contribution is her analysis of the economic burden of locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC), where she identified the primary cost drivers from a societal perspective using a leading healthcare insurer’s data (14 citations). She has also investigated the necessity of bowel preparation prior to hysterectomy, finding that its use does not reduce postoperative infectious morbidity (11 citations), challenging common clinical practices. Additionally, her work on venous thromboembolism prophylaxis following radical cystectomy has highlighted trends in extended-duration use (7 citations). By applying rigorous retrospective methods to real-world data, Sangaralingham provides actionable insights that can inform both clinical guidelines and healthcare policy, ultimately aiming to improve patient outcomes while managing costs.
