Advancing the Learning Health System

In 2023, the Alliance conducted a pilot study of the EQ-5D tool for capturing patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) - essentially, a standardized way to measure how clients perceive their health and wellbeing, and track changes in their health and wellbeing over time. This webinar provides an orientation to EQ-5D, a review of the pilot study and what we learned from  it, and an overview of the supports we will be providing for implementation.

This webinar, recorded on October 2, 2024, presents some of our sector's key learnings about sociodemographic data (SDD) collection in community primary health care settings. 

# Abstract

The Alliance for Healthier Communities created this resource to help Alliance member organizations understand the relationship between client health complexity ("SAMI" score) and panel-size targets.

 

À l’automne 2022, l’Alliance pour des communautés en santé a lancé un projet de recherche pour mettre à l’essai le questionnaire EQ-5D pour la collecte de mesures des résultats déclarés par les patients (MRDP) dans six centres de santé communautaire (CSC).

Le projet avait comme objectif :

#Introduction

During the fall of 2022, the Alliance for Healthier Communities (Alliance) launched a research project to pilot the implementation and use of the EQ-5D patient reported outcomes measures (PROMs) tool within 6 Community Health Organizations (CHCs).

The aim of this project was to investigate:

In this interactive webinar, Dr. Jaky Kueper and Sara Bhatti described the progress made in Phase 1 of the Alliance Practice-Based Learning Network (PBLN) project to develop an AI decision-support tool, described the roadmap for Phase 2, and gathered feedback from participants to inform the Phase 2 co-design process.

This article highlights the integrated work of the East Toronto Health Partners and their high-priority communities. It describes how they built a community-embedded learning health system in which patient partners are included in each step of the research cycle, from idea generation to dissemination.
