Agenda

Advancing evidence-based care is fundamental for improving public health and learning health systems (LHSs) make this possible by creating a continuous feedback loop that integrates real-time data, patient-centered care, stakeholder engagement and targeted interventions. By addressing both clinical and social factors, the LHS model helps build a more responsive and impactful health care system. We’ll discuss ethical considerations that are critical for implementation in these systems to ensure consistent outcomes that support individuals and communities achieve their best health.

Attendees will be encouraged to:

Explore the evolving role of AI and digital infrastructure in building responsive, ethical LHSs
Apply core ethical principles of implementation science to real-world challenges in health care delivery
Engage with national and local leaders across LHS, ethics and implementation science to share insights and build connections
Examine how ethical considerations influence implementation efforts on today’s most urgent health issues
