What is a learning health system?
A Learning Health System (LHS) is a dynamic system that continuously collects, analyzes and applies knowledge from clinical practice to improve healthcare delivery and patient outcomes.
According to the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), Learning Health Systems:
- Gather and analyze data from patient care experiences and internal metrics to improve overall care.
- Continually assess outcomes, while refining processes and training, to develop a cycle for learning and improvement.
- Provide care teams with actionable data and tools.
- Are important for health system transformation.
