My name is Tom Fields and I am currently employed as a Web Content Manager at Westat. I work on various health care projects including the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) Health Care Innovations Exchange and the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH) Study that is being co-directed by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH). My goal on Wikipedia is to share innovations and quality improvements that will make health care more efficient and reduce disparities.
Resources
I have the following resources to share and am available to answer questions on my talk page.
Reviews of Tools
AHRQ maintains a listing of "Innovations & QualityTools", which is a collection of health care practices of local health care providers and free online tools that providers can use in their practices. The profile information could be used to develop articles about local health care providers. Criteria for inclusion in and exclusion from the collection of profiles can be found at "[1]" along with bullets about the development process each profile undergoes. Each profile is given a rating that describes the strength of the evidence that the innovation was linked to the observed results. More information about how profiles merit different evidence ratings is available at "[2]".
Video profiles
AHRQ maintains a list of video profiles in which health care providers describe one of their practices on video. These videos could be shared on Wikipedia in both articles about the local health care organization which developed the practice or in Wikipedia articles which cover the practice.
