Huh, Texas Central #hsr #HighSpeedRail is back in the news, now in cooperation with #Amtrak https://media.amtrak.com/2023/08/texas-central-and-amtrak-seek-to-explore-high-speed-rail-service-opportunities-between-dallas-and-houston/

"“If we are going to add more high-speed rail to this country, the Dallas to Houston Corridor is a compelling proposition and offers great potential,” said Amtrak Senior Vice President of High-Speed Rail Development Programs Andy Byford."

‼️Research Duo 🔟‼️ Dr. Mignote Yilma & Dr. Hannah Decker are both in their research years with a focus in #HSR. Through @ncsp_ucsf, they have developed practical skills in program evaluation and design, and implementation science.#surgery #management #trauma #hospital #surgeons #science

Someone had an idea for a high-speed rail system in the US which connects state capitals to their neighboring states' capitals, and then to other systems. They called it Capital Connect and it's such a catchy name that it stuck with me, and I had the idea to make this.

The sign would be shown at railroad crossings (???) and on freeway bridges.

#HSR as field – and as
@VAhsrd@twitter
– have spent 40 years obsessing about barriers to #accessTOcare

I would think “what are the tasks a patient needs to accomplish to access care” would have been a foundational question somebody identified and answered

But I can't find it. Everything seems to be #ProcessMaps from a health system perspective, or #Aday/Anderson too high abstraction

help?

@Janekohara, can I consult you? If that is rude, please ignore me?

Friends

Is there a canonical model /process diagram of the steps that have to occur between saying "I should get care for this symptom" and actually having an appointment?

#Access #HSR #HealthServicesResearch

Great to see that #CogntiveTaskAnalysis (#CTA) is getting more exposure in #HealthServicesResearch (#HSR). Laura Graham and colleagues provide a four-step approach "to identifying and describing the knowledge, #expertise, thought processes, procedures, actors, goals, and mental strategies that underlie completing a clinical task."

...The Drug Information Service receives voluntary reports of drug shortages, which are confirmed by clinical pharmacists, who contact all manufacturers of a reported drug to determine if there is a national shortage. A shortage is considered resolved when all manufacturers have all drug products available, have discontinued their products, or the FDA reports on its website that the shortage has been resolved.27"

I love this man's capacity to bring clever existing data sources into #HSR

First post here. I'm an applied health researcher at the University of Sheffield, UK. I help clinicians design, fund and run research projects.

I'm interested in #RCTs, #QualitativeResearch and #MixedMethods research, #SystematicReviews (#SysRev), #QualityImprovement (#QuImp, #QI), #HumanFactors, #SocSci #theory, #CoProduction, #PROMs, #PREMs, #PPI, #EDI, #CORE20PLUS5, #HSR #HealthServicesResearch, #surgery and #IBD, amongst other things.

🚨 #NewPaperAlert: we know industry payments to physicians are common, but what about the nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and other advanced practice clinicians critical to patient care?

🔎 Over ⅓ of both physicians and APCs received industry payments
🔎 Physicians received more money overall, for more varied product types and reasons
🔎 Most common type of payment for food/beverage for all
