Goals:

1. Cross-fertilize and accelerate current efforts to develop and deliver to care teams the latest COVID-19 evidence-based guidance - and tools to apply it;

2. Measurably improve care and outcomes for COVID-19 patients and care teams in limited settings for selected targets being addressed by Learning Community participants in ways that can be scaled to many other targets and settings;

3. Advance tools, standards, and collaborations that seed the digital knowledge platforms, knowledge ecosystem, reference architecture, and public private partnerships called for in the ACTS Roadmap.

Background

Members of the AHRQ evidence-based Care Transformation Support (ACTS) initiative Stakeholder Community have been working together under the ACTS COVID-19 Guidance to Action Collaborative to improve the development, dissemination and use of “living” COVID-19 guidance. This presentation from 7/1/20 provides an overview of the ACTS initiative and its Roadmap for producing a healthcare knowledge ecosystem that fosters learning health systems and realization of the quadruple aim.

This part of the ACTS COVID-19 Guidance to Action Collaborative website is a Learning Community for Collaborative participants who are developing, implementing, and evaluating living CDS interventions focused on specific COVID-19 patient management issues. The Collaborative goal is to continually enhance patient care related to the pandemic as the evidence base evolves, and to support those working along the COVID-19 'knowledge supply chain' (data-to evidence-to knowledge-to guidance-to action) to improve clinical guidance development and workflow integration for COVID-19 (and beyond) to make the knowledge supply chain more efficient and effective as outlined in the ACTS Roadmap.
