概念，方法和实际问题等待着那些谁寻求了解如何更好地利用卫生服务研究在制定公共政策。一些政策和一些决策进程可能特别适合于从研究中获得信息。关于研究在多大程度上为决策提供信息的不同结论，可能源于对卫生服务研究构成的不同看法（它是可引用的研究还是任何有助于解决问题的专业社会调查？）或关于什么是研究用途的不同看法（是仅仅明确使用研究，还是也包括隐性知识或利益攸关方从研究中获得信息并在决策过程中具有影响力时的立场？有些条件可能有利于在政策制定中使用研究，例如研究人员和政策制定者之间的持续互动。加拿大省级决策者对卫生服务使用情况的探索性研究结果说明了这些问题。
Conceptual, methodological, and practical issues await those who seek to understand how to make better use of health services research in developing public policy. Some policies and some policymaking processes may lend themselves particularly well to being informed by research. Different conclusions about the extent to which policymaking is informed by research may arise from different views about what constitutes health services research (is it citable research or any professional social inquiry that can aid in problem solving?) or different views about what constitutes research use (is it explicit uses of research only, or does it also include tacit knowledge or the positions of stakeholders when they are informed by research and are influential in the policymaking process?), Some conditions may favor the use of research in policymaking, like sustained interactions between researchers and policymakers. Results from an exploratory study on the use of health services research by Canadian provincial policymakers illustrate these issues.
