When will AHRQs health IT grants and contracts share their research findings?
Most of AHRQ’s health IT grants are three-year projects, and the five contracts for statewide systems are five-year projects. These grants and contracts were awarded in the fall of 2004. However, AHRQ will not wait to begin collecting and releasing observations from these projects. Information and interim findings garnered from the projects, as well as from other AHRQ activities, will be shared as quickly as possible through the National Resource Center. Rapid dissemination and availability of useful information generated by the health IT initiative is a top priority for AHRQ.
