- Careful risk adjustment is at the core of any equitable payment model for the care of populations. There is widespread agreement that U.S. health care providers and payers who are responsible for the care of sicker patients (and its cost) should be compensated more generously than those who are responsible for the care of healthier patients, to limit perverse incentives that would encourage…May 2020Health Reform
- Context: Community‐engaged research (CEnR) aims to engender meaningful academic‐community partnerships to increase research quality and impact, improve individual and community health, and build capacity for uptake of evidence‐based practices. Given the urgency to solve society's pressing public health problems and increasing competition for funding, it is important to demonstrate CEnR's value.…May 2020Community-rooted/Participatory Research, Interventions
- The importance of social isolation and loneliness on our health is widely recognised in previous research.

Calls for healthcare systems to intervene on unmet social needs have stimulated several large-scale initiatives across the country. Yet, such activities are underway in the absence of a unifying conceptual framework outlining the potential mechanisms…February 2020Interventions, Services & Programs, Social/Structural Determinants
- We tend to study health inequalities as differentials in disease and death that exist within a population. But the most important cause of health inequality is social stratification, and social stratification only varies between populations. Here, I highlight a way forward in the study of health inequality that resolves this mismatch of analytical levels: we must study the fundamental causes as…February 2020Social/Structural Determinants
- Billions of dollars are lost annually in health research that fails to create meaningful benefits for patients. Engaging in research co-design – the meaningful involvement of end-users in research – may help address this research waste. This rapid overview of reviews addressed three related questions, namely (1) what approaches to research co-design exist in health settings? (2) What activities…February 2020Health Reform, Services & Programs
