Thank You!

We will try to be a clear as possible as to when we are wearing each one.

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

Presentation Notes
Exchange of electronic health information to: improve the quality / efficiency of health care empower the individual patient support public health, emergency preparedness, and research Requires common elements: minimum set of detailed standards - a shared network “dial tone” support for consumer / inter-organizational trust value of exchanging data exceeds the cost

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

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:

The Scale of the System = The Scope of the Platform

Inter-organizational Data Federations and Networks: They Need a Platform

31

So What’s in a Complete Platform?

Mechanisms for managing

communities of interest

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

New International Journal

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

Envisioning (and Democratizing) the Future…

•50X•73 Days

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

Educating a Cohort of “Health Infrastructuralists” to Transform Health

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.”

HILS Curriculum

Alignment with the QIE Roadmap

(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?

“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.
