For more than three decades, the AcademyHealth Annual Research Meeting (ARM) has convened a large and diverse group of stakeholders at the intersection of health, health care, and policy to share important findings and showcase the latest research on how the health system works, what it costs, and how to improve it.
Recognizing the important and often irreplaceable content and professional opportunities that the ARM offers health services researchers and the broader health care community, we have designed an online, virtual event in response to the COVID-19 pandemic − in lieu of an in-person meeting.
The 2020 Virtual ARM will continue to offer what thousands of attendees have come to expect and anticipate annually − new research, innovative methods, and robust discussions about the impact of health services research on health policy and practice.
