Learning collaboratives: Insights and a new taxonomy from AHRQ's two decades of experience.
The authors examined AHRQ's experience with learning collaboratives to characterize their attributes, identify factors that might contribute to their success or failure, and assess the challenges they encountered. Building on the literature and insights from AHRQ's experience, they propose a taxonomy that can offer guidance to decision makers and funders about the factors they should consider in developing collaboratives.

Implementation science: A potential catalyst for delivery system reform.
Understanding which of the multitude of technological, policy, and organizational changes under way are most effective at improving care is a critical challenge. This article describes 3 ideas that could be helpful: application of a well-grounded conceptual framework; distinguishing 3 distinct types of innovations that health systems are using to improve care; and a focus on building the information systems needed to accelerate timely learning.
