Kelsey M. Owsley's research focuses on the financial and psychosocial impacts of cancer caregiving, particularly among working individuals with low incomes. Her work investigates the lasting financial burdens of cancer, including the high cost of treatments like immunotherapy for Medicare survivors. Owsley also examines the accessibility of oncology services, exploring how programs like the 340B Drug Pricing Program influence service availability in rural areas and hospital participation in the program. Her publications have analyzed the relationship between nonprofit hospital community benefit spending and system membership, as well as the effects of community benefit reform on charity care and medical debt write-offs. Owsley's scholarship includes studies on treatment preferences among adults with varying cognitive abilities. She has an h-index of 7, with 27 publications and 224 citations, and collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Tatiane Santos, Jaimi L.
