How can health systems improve while undergoing major transformation?
In a new commentary published by Policy Options, Dr. Lawrence Rosenberg, president and CEO of the Santé Québec West-Central Montreal Health and Social Services University Network, explores the role that recognized innovation hubs can play in accelerating improvements in health care and health services. He argues that while stronger coordination and governance are important, health systems must also preserve the ability to learn, test new approaches and innovate in real-world care settings.
The article examines how innovation hubs can provide structured environments for evaluating new clinical, digital and organizational models before they are adopted on a broader scale. According to Dr. Rosenberg, fostering innovation alongside system stewardship is essential to building health systems that continuously learn and improve.
