Welcome to our web site and the initiative to improve health care and public health through enhanced scale-up and spread of effective health programs. This website was established in conjunction with the July 2010 Conference to Advance the State of the Science and Practice on Scale-up and Spread of Effective Health Programs, an event funded by the Agency for Health Care Research and Quality, Commonwealth Fund, US Department of Veterans Affairs, Donaghue Foundation and John A. Hartford Foundation. The initiative seeks to envision – and trigger – a new era of rapid and broad scale up of effective practices in health care and public health, to achieve improvements in health and quality of life through more rapid diffusion and uptake of effective, innovative practices.

This site contains materials from the conference and additional resources useful in research, policy and practice activities to enhance scale-up and spread.

The website and blog are accompanied by an email discussion list. To join the list, please send an e-mail message to LISTSERV@WWW.LISTSERV.VA.GOV with the command SUBSCRIBE SCALE-UP-SPREAD-DISC-L as the body of the message. Leave the subject line of your message blank, and delete any email “signature” or other text inserted into the message. If you encounter any difficulty please contact Deborah Jenkins (Deborah.Jenkins@va.gov).

Introductory WebEx Recording (Starts at 18-minute Mark) and Preparatory Activity

For those who were unable to attend Friday's introductory WebEx session for the conference, you can tune in here for a recording:
https://ihi.webex.com/ihi/lsr.php?AT=pb&SP=TC&rID=52907387&rKey=1a70e3cdc92c7c8d&act=pb
You might need to take two minutes to download the WebEx player (instructions will pop up) if you have not done so already. Please note that you should fast forward to the 18-minute mark as that is when the formal call begins (otherwise you will just hear patches of conversation and long silences as we readied for the session).
For those who are attending the meeting, please let us know if you have any questions and please try to carry out the core preparatory tasks we outline in the WebEx: Reading the commissioned papers, including the "meeting framing" paper; completing the preparatory worksheet; and scanning the case studies.
For those unable to attend, you should still find the WebEx call informational and, again, we hope you'll continue to tune into this site before, during and after the meeting.
Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions (jmccannon@ihi.org).
Thanks.
Joe McCannon
