Recent Commonwealth Fund–supported research appearing in peer-reviewed publications examines:
- the impact that reducing copayments for cardiovascular medications has on health spending and resource utilization (Journal of the American College of Cardiology, Oct. 2012);
- results from a survey assessing the extent to which large medical groups are prepared to work under new payment models (Health Affairs, Sept. 2012);
- the impact of electronic health records on the quality of ambulatory care (Journal of General Internal Medicine, published online Oct. 2012); and
- whether hospitals that implement robust health information technology systems actually perform better on measures of health care quality and outcomes (BMC Medical Informatics and Decision Making, Sept. 27, 2012).
