The ministries of health in developing countries have generally accorded great importance to strengthening health management, so that available resources will be used effectively and efficiently. The value of health systems research in supporting informed decision making in the management process has been recognized by many ministries of health and in a number of developing countries, health systems research projects and health systems research methodology workshops have been conducted. These efforts, however, need to be augmented so that managers at various levels in the health care system acquire an understanding and appreciation of health systems research and its use in management. This report publishes selected contributions to an international seminar which was convened in order to explore national and global experiences in the field of integration of health systems research and health management.

As our nation enters a new era of medical science that offers the real prospect of personalized health care, we will be confronted by an increasingly complex array of health care options and decisions. The Learning Healthcare System considers how health care is structured to develop and to apply evidence-from health profession training and infrastructure development to advances in research methodology, patient engagement, payment schemes, and measurement-and highlights opportunities for the creation of a sustainable learning health care system that gets the right care to people when they need it and then captures the results for improvement. This book will be of primary interest to hospital and insurance industry administrators, health care providers, those who train and educate health workers, researchers, and policymakers. The Learning Healthcare System is the first in a series that will focus on issues important to improving the development and application of evidence in health care decision making. The Roundtable on Evidence-Based Medicine serves as a neutral venue for cooperative work among key stakeholders on several dimensions: to help transform the availability and use of the best evidence for the collaborative health care choices of each patient and provider; to drive the process of discovery as a natural outgrowth of patient care; and, ultimately, to ensure innovation, quality, safety, and value in health care.
