Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) has been selected to participated in the Health Systems Implementation Initiative (HSII), a new program launched by the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (CHOP) to help turn useful research results into clinical practice. At CHOP, this work will be led by Clinical Futures and the Center for Healthcare Quality and Analytics.
CHOP is one of 42 participating institutions, and projects from these participants will aim to put research funded by PCORI into practice. PCORI’s Board of Governors has committed up to $50 million to support this endeavor.
