Andrea Joan Palm (born 1973) is an American government health advisor who was the United States deputy secretary of health and human services from 2021 to 2025. Palm was the secretary-designee of the Wisconsin Department of Health Services from 2019 to 2021. She was never sworn in because of Republican opposition in the Wisconsin Senate.

She worked as a senior staffer in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and as a White House policy advisor during the presidency of Barack Obama. She was an aide to Hillary Clinton during her time in the United States Senate.
