Comparative case studies in integrated care implementation from across the globe: a quest for action.
There are no formal guidelines for integrated care implementation applicable to diverse healthcare systems. In this paper, the investigators use a multiple case study design to highlight current integrated care implementation efforts through seven international case studies that target a range of healthcare systems, patient populations and implementation strategies and outcomes, and to synthesize the shared and unique challenges and successes across studies using the EPIS framework.

Accountable care program implementation and effects on participating health care systems in Washington state: a conceptual model.
This study used key informant interviews with health care executives representing 5 large health systems contracted with the Washington State Health Care Authority to provide accountable care network services under the State Innovation Model initiative. Two rounds of semistructured interviews were conducted, and results indicated the need to present a modified conceptual model aligned better with accountable care program (ACP) implementation.

Why we need community engagement in medical research.
The aim of this article was to illustrate how community engagement can help to remedy shortfalls of community trust, participant enrollment, and uptake of research findings. After briefly describing these shortfalls, the authors considered 3 case examples that demonstrate the potential of community engagement to address each. They also discussed the ethical importance and implications of demonstrating respect for the community.

Collaborative networks for both improvement and research.
The authors discuss collaborative improvement networks, which can serve as large-scale, health system laboratories to engage clinicians, researchers, patients, and parents in testing approaches to translate research into practice. Creation of total population registries in collaborative network sites provides large, representative study samples with high-quality data which can be used to generate evidence and to inform clinical decision-making. Collaborative networks for improvement and research offer the opportunity not only to make improvements but also to study improvements to determine which interventions and combination of strategies work best in which settings.
