Roadmap Phase 3 - Scaling
Phase 3 Deliverables
- PPP-driven collaboration network and infrastructure for broadly fostering LHSs and realization of the Quintuple Aim supported by a high functioning knowledge ecosystem, including further enhancements to the Coordinating Center
- Production version of an enterprise wide AHRQ DKP including computability for all resources from AHRQ and others, as appropriate
- Production version of tooling that makes information processing in the knowledge ecosystem cycle more computable and user friendly and information transfer between these steps more seamlessly interoperable for all clinical targets, including a full Production version of an open, public-sector marketplace that delivers offerings from all Federal agencies (and other interested public sources) as appropriate
- Living evidence, guidance, and CDS interventions/eCQMs for up to 25 clinical targets prioritized by the Roadmap Execution Steering Committee/PPP (including the eight clinical targets from Phases 1 and 2), produced and maintained using the tooling deliverables
- Enhanced playbook for creating and maintaining living computable evidence, guidance, and CDS/eCQMs that is coordinated with investments from other stakeholder organizations to generate supporting educational materials (e.g., courses, learning communities)
- Results from developing and clinically implementing the living CDS interventions and eCQMs (and AHRQ DKP) for the eight Phase 1 and 2 clinical targets in at least 50 different CDOs (with wide variation in size, populations and regions served, health IT sophistication and systems) affecting care for at least 20 million patients, which includes assessing and documenting:
- The implications of these results for more broadly leveraging the AHRQ DKP and other knowledge ecosystem components during Phase 3 Scaling
- How system leaders were engaged to foster a learning culture that explicitly supports interprofessional continuing education for team collaboration, adoption, and widespread implementation of CDS interventions in variable practice settings
- Enhanced Playbook for successfully implementing CDS interventions and eCQMs that covers in detail at least the eight Phase 1 and 2 clinical targets (applicable to other targets as well) that is coordinated with investments from other stakeholder organizations to generate supporting educational materials (e.g., courses, learning communities)
- Requirements and project plans for broadly scaling AHRQ DKP and other Knowledge Ecosystem components, to support the ecosystem cycle for many more clinical targets and setting than addressed in Phase 2
