Care Transitions

AHRQ has a long history of funding research to produce evidence and evidence-based tools to improve care transitions (e.g., Safe Transitions Toolkit, Chartbook on Care Coordination, Project RED Toolkit). As the digital healthcare ecosystem expands, more research is needed to ensure care transitions are high-quality, seamless, coordinated, and safe. AHRQ currently funds innovative digital healthcare research to improve the quality of care and health outcomes during care transitions.
