Integrating Research and Practice: Health System Leaders Working Toward High-Value Care
- Share to:
Health care has been called one of the most complex sectors of the U.S. economy. Driven largely by robust innovation in treatments and interventions, this complexity has created an increased need for evidence about what works best for whom in order to inform decisions that lead to safe, efficient, effective, and affordable care. At the same time, traditional approaches to clinical research are straining to keep pace with these demands. Calls for approaches that draw from and better inform real-world practice, that leverage the increasingly available vast amounts of digital health data, and that are more cost-effective have been on the rise. These approaches are at the foundation of a learning health system, one that continuously and seamlessly generates knowledge from the practice of health care to answer important questions that matter to patients, their health care providers, and stakeholders system-wide. As health care becomes more digital, clinical datasets are becoming larger and more numerous. These data, many of them gathered through the normal course of health care, offer great potential for extracting useful knowledge to achieve the “triple aim”—improved care, better health for populations, and reduced health care costs.
