AHRQ Views Blog Post on New Compendium Will Give Researchers and Policymakers Insights into Nation’s Health Systems

AHRQ has just released the Compendium of U.S. Health Systems, 2016 – the first publicly available database that provides researchers, policymakers and health care administrators with a snapshot of the nation’s health systems. In a new AHRQ Views blog post, AHRQ Deputy Director Dr. Sharon Arnold, Ph.D. explains that the compendium “exemplifies the Agency’s ongoing commitment to collect, analyze and disseminate data in ways that support quality improvement efforts,” and will evolve over time. Currently, it provides a list of health systems developed with 2016 data from sources that cover the entire United States. Read more details about the Compendium in the blog.
