Patient engagement in ACO practices and patient-reported outcomes among adults with co-occurring chronic disease and mental health conditions.
The purpose of this study was to assess the extent to which practices with patient-centered cultures, greater shared decision-making strategies, and better coordination among team members have better patient-reported outcomes for patients with diabetes and/or cardiovascular and comorbid mental health diagnoses. The study concluded that Accountable Care Organization patients with comorbid physical and mental health diagnoses report better physical functioning when practices have patient-centered cultures.

Impact of patient involvement on clinical practice guideline development: a parallel group study.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of patient and public involvement (PPI) on guideline question formation and validate a conceptual model of patient and public contributions to guidelines. The qualitative analysis of the discussions occurring during guideline question development demonstrated key differences in group conduct and validated the proposed conceptual model of patient and public contributions to guidelines.

A person-centered, registry-based learning health system for palliative care: a path to coproducing better outcomes, experience, value, and science.
In this paper, the authors discuss measurement of the impact of palliative care, which is critical for determining what works for which patients in what settings, to learn, improve care, and ensure access to high value care for people with serious illness. The authors described an approach to codesigning and implementing a palliative care registry that functions as a learning health system, by combining patient and family inputs and clinical data to support person-centered care, quality improvement, accountability, transparency, and scientific research.
