The ACP Foundation's Fourth Annual National Health Communication Conference will take place November 30, 2005. Titled "Practical Solutions to the Problems of Low Health Literacy," the conference aims to present new and proven practical interventions that counter the effects of low patient health literacy. These interventions will be presented to an audience filled with experts and leaders representing organizations that have the capacity to improve low health literacy. In addition, the conference aims to build on the actions and programs that were developed by participants in the 2004 Conference, primarily the Prescription Label Standardization Project, which has become a primary programming focus of the ACP Foundation. The results of the ACP Foundation-sponsored research paper, which explores the practical, legal, and policy ramifications of prescription label standardization, will be presented as a Keynote Address at the conference. During the second part of the conference, conference presenters and participants will engage in operational discussions whereby industry-specific action steps to improve low health literacy can be developed using the information already presented at the conference as well as the expertise of the conference participants. These afternoon discussions will involve small groups of knowledgeable experts and stakeholders focused on moving forward specific health literacy goals. One goal is the advancement of the Prescription Label Standardization Project, which will be poised to move past the research phase and into the policy and action phase at the time of the conference. In the long-term, the Action Steps developed at the conference regarding prescription label standardization and other health literacy issues will be used, as in past years, by the ACP Foundation and by other participating organizations to improve programming surrounding health literacy. Furthermore, the outcomes from this conference will be published in an executive summary released jointly by the IOM and the ACP Foundation, which will be available as a resource to the public via the Foundation's website. By equipping leaders and experts with evidence-based measures to improve low health literacy, this conference has significant potential to impact public health by empowering all patients to become knowledgeable and engaged in their health management. The patients who will most feel the effects of efforts to improve low health literacy will be the 90 million American adults who suffer from limited health literacy, which disproportionately affects poor, elderly, and minority populations (IOM: 'A Prescription to End Confusion', 2004).

ACP基金会的第四届年度全国卫生传播会议将于2005年11月30日举行。会议题为“低健康素养问题的实际解决方案”，旨在提出新的和经过验证的实际干预措施，以抵消低患者健康素养的影响。这些干预措施将向代表有能力改善卫生知识普及程度低的组织的专家和领导人的听众介绍。此外，会议的目标是在2004年会议参与者制定的行动和计划的基础上，主要是处方标签标准化项目，该项目已成为ACP基金会的主要规划重点。ACP基金会赞助的研究论文探讨了处方标签标准化的实践、法律和政策影响，其结果将作为主题演讲在会议上发表。在会议的第二部分，会议主持人和与会者将进行业务讨论，利用会议上已经提供的信息以及与会者的专门知识，制定针对特定行业的行动步骤，以改善低卫生知识水平。这些下午的讨论将涉及知识渊博的专家和利益攸关方小组，重点是推进具体的卫生扫盲目标。其中一个目标是推进处方标签标准化项目，该项目将在会议召开时从研究阶段进入政策和行动阶段。从长远来看，会议制定了关于处方标签标准化的行动步骤
