The Learning Health System
4
Health systems--at any level of scale--become learning systems when they can, continuouslyand routinely, study and improve themselves
Perspective: Jan 3, 2013“Code Red and Blue — Safely Limiting Health Care’s GDP Footprint”
Arnold Milstein, M.D., M.P.H.…U.S. health care needs to adopt new work
methods, outlined in the Institute of Medicine’s vision for a learning health system…
Inspiration• I believe that people are
naturally drawn to visionary that stimulate imagination
• LHS = the “Big Idea” we have needed for a long time
5
LHS Themes
• Learn from every patient!• A system problem needs a system
solution!• 17 years to 17 months to 17 weeks
to 17 days (to 17 hours)!

The Actual Idea: What is an LHS?Three Views:
• Checklist
• Macro view from earth orbit
• Micro view from the ground
7
Checklist View: Properties of a Health System That Can Learn
Every consenting patient’s characteristics and experience are available to learn from
Best practice knowledge is immediately available to support decisions
Improvement is continuous through ongoing study
An infrastructure enables this to happen routinely and with economy of scale
All of this is part of the culture 8

The LHS and Big Data
• The LHS is bigger than Big Data• Better health = BD2K + K2P

(At Least) Two Questions for Discussion
1. How do we educate the workforce of the future to serve the needs of the member organizations of the Alliance for Continuing Education in the Health Professions in a Learning Health System?
2. What are opportunities for synergies and collaboration?

Improvement is continuous through ongoing study
This happens routinely, economically and almost invisibly

The LHS Infrastructure Challenge
We have:
Problem 1
Problem 3
Problem 2• A set of learning
loops, each addressing a different problem.
• An efficient large scale system:
But we need:
New Science?• National workshop explored the
research challenges inherent in realizing a high functioning LHS
• April, 2013: 45 invited attendees• At the end, it was suggested that
these challenges may equate to a new science
LHS Journal• Editorial office in Ann Arbor• Three Associate Editors
– Brendan Delaney– Jonathan Silverstein– Kevin Sullivan
• 46-member Editorial Board (nine countries)
• Article types– Research reports– Experience reports– Briefs– Commentaries
A Department of Learning Health Sciences at the U of Michigan
• Research: Generate and communicate new knowledge that advances the sciences of learning applied to health– New academic journal
• Service: Promote learning and learning systems at all levels of scale
• Education: Prepare a next generation of learning scientists; fold learning science into health professional curricula– New graduate degree program: Health
Infrastructures and Learning Systems
The Workforce to Drive the Future of Health, Enthusiastically Recommended
“The proposed PhD in HILS program couples data science with myriad other key disciplines spanning the social, computational, and biomedical sciences. Some are well established, and others are themselves emerging. Together, training in these disciplines and the continued development of a new science at their intersection holds the potential to capture, harness, and unleash the power of this data – and to optimally utilize the knowledge generated from it. I wholeheartedly endorse this program, and look forward to collaboration opportunities in the future.”

“Learning How to Learn”A Learning Health System (LHS)…
A System of Health Learners…• Every Human Health Experience…• Every Decision Affecting Health…• Every Person…
Two Questions to Consider*
1. What can a LHS do for me?
2. What can I do for a LHS?
*In your role as a health professional, as a patient/caregiver, as a citizen, and in other roles.
