December 2, 2009 at 9:00 a.m.
A forum hosted by the Engelberg Center for Health Care Refom at Brookings discussed how new investments in health information technology, quality measurement and reporting, medical product safety surveillance, and comparative effectiveness research have the potential to move toward a nationwide infrastructure. Panelists outlined a vision and practical next steps for building such an infrastructure that could quickly and efficiently generate evidence for health care decision-makers, and offered insights from the private sector and perspectives on the federal role in the effort.
