HSR Resources & Methods

With input from Big Cities Health Coalition (BCHC), AcademyHealth staff used the National Library of Medicine’s Health Services Research Projects in Progress (HSRProj) database to review trends in urban health services research (HSR) within participating BCHC Cities to explore the nature of HSR undertaken in these cities, and whether there is collaboration in research among these cities.

This poster, presented at the 2016 AcademyHealth Annual Research Meeting, explores the current extent of information on global health services, policy, and systems research in HSRProj. It then suggests opportunities to leverage more than two decades of experience to expand HSRProj as a comprehensive database of global HSR.

As the professional society for health services researchers, we want our site to accurately reflect the vibrancy and diversity of our members and the field.
