Fostering Rapid Advances in Health Care Learning from System Demonstrations

In response to a request from the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services, the Institute of Medicine convened a committee to identify possible demonstration projects that might be implemented in 2003, with the hope of yielding models for broader health system reform within a few years. The committee is recommending a substantial portfolio of demonstration projects, including chronic care and primary care demonstrations, information and communications technology infrastructure demonstrations, health insurance coverage demonstrations, and liability demonstrations. As a set, the demonstrations address key aspects of the health care delivery system and the financing and legal environment in which health care is provided.Corrigan, Janet is the author of 'Fostering Rapid Advances in Health Care Learning from System Demonstrations' with ISBN 9780309087070 and ISBN 0309087074.
