Part 3: Towards a regional primary care learning health system: from crisis response to resilience

The concept of Learning Health Systems (LHS) has been gaining traction globally, to translate research and policy into practice, co-design responsive care models, improve quality, remove systems barriers, leverage incentives, measure outcomes based on routinely collected health data, inform health resource commissioning. Come along to hear about how our WVPHN teams worked together to adapt our COVID-19 Learning Health Network into an operational model of a regional primary care led learning health system. Learn about the central challenges of LHSs and the key enablers and barriers to organisational success. Learn about how we harnessed feedback from our community of interest, built supportive processes to power health systems reform in a regional community.

Objectives:

• Describe the rationale for developing a learning health systems and list practical examples of problems that can be addressed through this approach


• Classify the central challenges of learning health systems and discuss how social, technological, political, scientific, ethical and legal processes ideally align for value


• Identify the barriers and enablers to design, implementation and evaluation of learning health systems
