<p>The Integrated Delivery System Research Network (IDSRN) is a model of field-based

<h2>Mission</h2>
|
|
<p>The Integrated Delivery System Research Network (IDSRN) is a model of field-based
|
|
research that links the Nation's top researchers with some of the largest health
|
|
care systems to conduct research on cutting-edge issues in health care on an accelerated
|
|
timetable.</p>
|
|
<p>Designed by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), the Integrated
|
|
Delivery System Research Network (IDSRN) was developed explicitly to capitalize
|
|
on the research capacity of, and research opportunities occurring within, integrated
|
|
delivery systems. The network creates, supports, and disseminates scientific
|
|
evidence about what works and what does not work in terms of data and measurement
|
|
systems and organizational "best practices" related to care delivery
|
|
and research diffusion. It also provides a cadre of delivery-affiliated researchers
|
|
and sites to test ways to adapt and apply existing knowledge.</p>
|
|
<p class="size2"><a href="#Contents">Return to Contents</a></p>

|
<a name="char"></a>
|
|
<h2>Characteristics of IDSRN Partners</h2>
|
|
<p>As a group, the IDSRN provides health services in a wide variety of organizational care settings to over 55 million
|
|
Americans including the privately insured, Medicare (3 million) and Medicaid
|
|
(2 million) patients, the uninsured (0.6 million), ethnic and racial minorities
|
|
(5.8 million), and rural (6.3 million) and inner-city residents. (Select for
|
|
<a href="#Partners">IDSRN Partners and Collaborators</a>.)</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Each of the nine IDSRN partners has three unique attributes that make it particularly
|
|
suited for time-sensitive research projects:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li> <strong>Data availability.</strong> IDSRN partners collect and maintain administrative,
|
|
claims, encounter, and other data on large populations that are clinically,
|
|
demographically, and geographically diverse.</li>
|
|
<li> <strong>Research expertise.</strong> IDSRN partners include some of the country's
|
|
leading health services researchers, with proficiency in quantitative and
|
|
qualitative methodologies and expertise in emerging delivery system issues.</li>
|
|
<li> <strong>Management authority to implement a health care intervention.</strong> IDSRN
|
|
partners have responsibility for managing delivery systems and are in a position
|
|
to implement financial and organizational strategies with an evaluation component. </li>
|
|
</ul>
