Just announced: more than 20 grantees will use highly valued datasets to study topics ranging from chronic and complex conditions, payment for health care services, reproductive health, access to care and treatment and more. AcademyHealth manages Health Data for Action, a research program of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation that makes valuable data from unique data owners available to researchers to answer important research questions. The advancement of knowledge and innovation in the U.S. health care system depends on the availability and accessibility of information and data. And yet, data for research may be costly, difficult to acquire, complex to analyze, and hampered by policies that inhibit access to data.
