effective health care program - helping you make better treatment choices



Call for Nominations for Future EPC Reports by January 31, 2019

What health care decisions are you struggling with?  Would a review of the scientific evidence help inform this decision? Share your ideas with the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality’s (AHRQ) Evidence-based Practice Center (EPC) Program.  AHRQ will use these ideas to determine the focus of its evidence reports this year (i.e., AHRQ can provide an evidence report at no cost).  Your input is important!
Propose your evidence report topics by January 31 at:  https://www.effectivehealthcare.ahrq.gov/index.cfm/submit-a-suggestion-for-research/.  
The AHRQ EPC Program reviews and summarizes the available evidence on current health care issues, which can help:
  • Clinicians and policymakers understand the benefits and harms of different tests and treatments;
  • Health systems and policymakers understand the best options for implementing a new program or intervention; and
  • Patients make better decisions about their health care options
If you have any questions, please contact epc@ahrq.hhs.gov
