Exploring Learning Health Systems’ Needs
AHRQ’s Summit explored what health systems need to become learning health systems.
Research Summit
AHRQ hosted a AHRQ Research Summit on Learning Health Systems in September 2017 for a variety of external stakeholders to learn what AHRQ can do to address their needs. These stakeholders included representatives from large and small delivery systems, research organizations, Federal and State Government agencies, and others.
Through a series of co-creation exercises, attendees developed and prioritized ideas regarding research, tools, training, and data that AHRQ could produce to advance learning health care organizations. Participants brainstormed ideas and were asked to develop further the higher rated ideas. For each idea, participants worked in small groups to develop/describe future AHRQ initiatives that might address it or support it. The descriptions addressed the following aspects: (1) A problem statement/need, (2) AHRQ actions, (3) Audience/stakeholders, (4) Partners with AHRQ, and (5) Evaluation. Once these descriptions were developed, Summit attendees again voted to identify the most critical ideas.
The top five ideas as voted on by Summit participants included:
- Develop a business case for investing in LHS and disseminate to delivery system chief executive officers.
- Catalyze the development of a public commons in the form of a common data platform that accelerates sharing of data, tools, and resources.
- Curate a guide to becoming a LHS with practical guidance and tools for health care delivery organizations.
- Accelerate the spread of evidence-based best practices across learning health systems.
- Advance patient-reported outcomes and patient experience measures to support the ability of learning health systems to pursue meaningful patient-centered improvement.

How Learning Health Systems Learn: Lessons from the Field
AHRQ conducted site visits at a few leading organizations to learn about the steps they have taken to move evidence to the frontlines of care. How Learning Health Systems Learn: Lessons from the Field gathered information that could be shared with other organizations involved in the journey toward becoming a learning health system and to identify ways in which AHRQ could support this process.
Learning Health Systems Case Studies
AHRQ developed a series of case studies to help health system chief executive officers and other C-suite leaders better understand the concept of a learning health system and the value of making investments in transformation. Building this understanding is part of the Agency’s ongoing effort to accelerate learning and innovation in healthcare delivery in order to ensure that people across America receive the highest quality, safest, most up-to-date care.
