Learning Health Networks

The Anderson Center Learning Health Networks (LHN) Program exists to accelerate improved outcomes at scale by connecting patients and families, clinicians, and leaders in Learning Health Networks. We provide the adaptive quality improvement and operational services needed to start up and run these networks—and build a trusted community of shared learning and expertise that drives sustainable change.

Our integrated model offers an array of unique benefits that reduce complexity and operational burden, allowing networks to stay focused on strategy, outcomes, and mission driven work. With deep experience across safety, chronic care, specialty care, behavioral health, and community wellbeing, we partner with teams to design, launch, and sustain learning health networks that deliver real world impact.
