Evaluating and optimizing health care delivery is necessary for us to deliver the highest quality value-based health services in a manner that is both patient and population-centered. This track will facilitate training in population health (social determinants and health equity), value-based care, interprofessional skills, and health system improvements.
Examples of science to be supported, but not limited to:
- Using electronic health (eHealth) and telemedicine to enhance service quality and patient outcomes.
- Designing human resource management interventions to improve health care workers’ performance.
- Evaluating community-based and facility-based health services in response to emerging health needs.
Examples of catalytic activities to be provided, but not limited to:
- Develop inter-professional networks of researchers and support training to design, implement, and evaluate health systems research
