Domains and research questions to guide public health services and systems research (PHSSR) were generated through a one-year multi-stage, participatory process.
AcademyHealth identified reasons for the lack of sustained investment in the public health services and systems research (PHSSR) field in a report outlining the conditions needed to drive investment in, support for, and action on a renewed research agenda.
Panels at AcademyHealth’s 2022 Annual Research Meeting showcased prominent research related to critical and emerging issues for the field of health services research.
AcademyHealth, in partnership with Econometrica and Family Voices, convenes leading voices to generate a national research agenda to build the evidence needed to optimize school-based mental health services for children and youth with special health care needs (CYSHCN). This project is funded through the Eugene Washington PCORI Engagement Award, an initiative of the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute® (PCORI®) (#EASCS-38921).
