• New Publication from AHRQ CDSiC Shares PC CDS Performance Measurement Framework
• Topic Highlight: PC CDS Resources for Clinicians
• AHRQ CDSiC Work to Be Highlighted at Upcoming AcademyHealth Annual Research Meeting
• Third AHRQ CDSiC Annual Meeting Brings Together Stakeholders to Discuss the Future of PC CDS

• A practical planning and reporting tool and accompanying user guide that clinicians can use before, during, and after PC CDS implementation to consistently describe how PC CDS was designed, deployed, and evaluated.
• A report that examines how clinical organizations can measure the effect of PC CDS interventions on care team workflows and patient lifeflows.
• A manuscript, published in Applied Clinical Informatics, which identifies best practices in clinician-facing visualizations of patient-generated health data to inform the design of PC CDS tools.

We look forward to AcademyHealth's upcoming Annual Research Meeting (ARM), which will take place from June 7-10 in Minneapolis, Minnesota.  NORC at the University of Chicago and the AHRQ CDSiC will be featured in two posters of interest to the PC CDS community.

On May 6 and 7, 2025, stakeholders were invited to convene virtually for the third AHRQ CDSiC Annual Meeting.  The meeting featured the theme Smarter Health: Supporting Patient-Centered Clinical Decision Support Where It Matters Most.  Throughout the two-day meeting, participants engaged in interactive presentations on the AHRQ CDSiC's innovative work thus far and sessions highlighting new directions for the field, such as strategies to optimize PC CDS for patients, methods to strengthen the implementation of PC CDS in real-world settings, and new frontiers in the use of artificial intelligence.

The meeting also featured a discussion session on opportunities to advance PC CDS, where participants could share their insights on key directions for the field.  The discussion focused on two critical topics:

• Advancing PC CDS to support evolving national health priorities, such as empowering patients in the prevention and management of chronic conditions.
  
  
• Strategies to leverage PC CDS to facilitate health systems' participation in value-based care models, such as by using PC CDS to support the delivery of evidence-based care and account for patients' unique needs and preferences.
