DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Over the past three years, the Research Insights series, funded through an initial AHRQ large conference grant, has successfully provided a unique forum to identify and examine evidence related to health care costs, financing, and organization and to highlight potentially researchable topics where the evidence base is lacking. Participant evaluations document that these meetings and associated materials have been useful to the policy "intermediaries" who advise decision makers. For the continuation of the Research Insights series, we place even greater emphasis on innovation through webinar methods of convening and dissemination in an attempt to further broaden our reach to state policymakers. The continuation of this partnership between AcademyHealth and AHRQ will augment their respective efforts to support the creation of rigorous, timely research and disseminate findings to decision makers. Continuation of the Research Insights series seeks to: 1) build upon the sentinel mechanism established during the first three years of the meeting series to identify current and emerging policy issues concerning health care costs, organization, markets and productivity; 2) identify the most current, well-done research on these content areas supported by all major funders of such work; and 3) create opportunities for dialogue among researchers and policymakers about the implications and limitations of relevant existing research findings. We plan to retain and expand these innovative features in the next three years of the Research Insights series. The heart of the Research Insights project will be the one invitational meeting of 30 to 40 participants and one open webinar to be held each year of the grant. Each year's meeting and webinar will be on the same or related topics. We anticipate holding the in-person meetings in February, March or April of each year (2014- 2016) and their associated webinars will follow four to eight weeks later. The established Project Advisory Committee (PAC) will meet in September of each year to identify and prioritize meeting topics based on 1) current policy relevance; 2) availability of relevant evidence from research; and 3) gaps in previous dissemination efforts. Members of the PAC will also advise staff about the agenda, suggested moderator and speakers, and invitations for each meeting. Meeting participants will include federal and state policy intermediaries and leading expert researchers. AHRQ Priority Populations will be given greater emphasis over the next three years through topic selection and targeted research presentations. Each meeting will result in an issue brief, and we will make webinar recordings publicly available through our website. AcademyHealth will continue to evaluate the grant using participant surveys, internet statistics, and feedback from the PAC but will expand our evaluation with a second participant survey sent in conjunction with the issue brief to better measure the impact and outcomes of the meeting and its related materials on participants using methods based on logic models and change theory.

在过去的三年里，研究洞察系列，通过最初的AHRQ大型会议资助，成功地提供了一个独特的论坛，以确定和检查与医疗保健成本，融资和组织相关的证据，并突出潜在的可研究的主题缺乏证据基础。与会者的评价表明，这些会议和相关材料对向决策者提供咨询意见的政策“中间人”很有用。为了继续研究洞察系列，我们更加强调通过网络研讨会的召集和传播方法进行创新，以进一步扩大我们对国家政策制定者的影响。AcademyHealth和AHRQ之间继续这种伙伴关系将加强各自的努力，以支持开展严格、及时的研究，并向决策者传播研究结果。研究洞察系列的继续旨在：1）建立在前三年会议系列期间建立的哨兵机制，以确定有关医疗保健成本，组织，市场和生产力的当前和新出现的政策问题; 2）确定由此类工作的所有主要资助者支持的这些内容领域的最新，做得最好的研究;（3）为研究人员和决策者就现有相关研究成果的影响和局限性开展对话创造机会。我们计划在未来三年的研究洞察系列中保留并扩展这些创新功能。研究洞察力项目的核心将是一个邀请会议的30至40名参与者和一个开放的网络研讨会将每年举行的赠款。每年的会议和网络研讨会将讨论相同或相关的主题。我们预计在每年（2014- 2016年）的2月、3月或4月举行面对面会议，相关的网络研讨会将在4至8周后举行。成立的项目咨询委员会（PAC）将于每年9月举行会议，以确定和优先考虑会议主题，其基础是：（1）当前政策的相关性;（2）从研究中获得的相关证据;以及（3）以前传播工作的差距。委员会成员亦会就每次会议的议程、建议的主持人和讲者，以及邀请事宜，向员工提供意见。与会者将包括联邦和州的政策中介机构和领先的专家研究人员。在今后三年中，将通过专题选择和有针对性的研究报告，更加重视AHRQ的优先群体。每次会议都将产生一个问题简报，我们将通过我们的网站公开提供网络研讨会的录音。AcademyHealth将继续使用参与者调查，互联网统计数据和PAC的反馈来评估补助金，但将通过与问题简报一起发送的第二次参与者调查来扩大我们的评估，以更好地衡量会议的影响和成果及其相关材料使用基于逻辑模型和变化理论的方法对参与者进行评估。
