AHRQ series on improving translation of evidence: progress and promise in supporting learning health systems.
The authors discuss the articles in the AHRQ EPC series published in this journal over the past six months. They state that satisfaction, care, and costs would all improve if health care delivery were as efficient and effective as possible given current knowledge. They conclude that millions of health decisions must be made by clinicians, patients, and health care systems, and they believe better decisions will be made with evidence.
