Research & Evaluation
At AllianceChicago, we work closely with patients, providers, and health systems to generate new insights and address gaps in evidence. For example, we share a robust Health Information Technology infrastructure with many of our community health center partners – helping facilitate the design of interventions, evaluation of outcomes and description of populations. Working in collaboration with community health center network stakeholders, we have developed specific research priorities: behavioral and mental health, chronic disease management, health equity, health information technology and social determinants of health.
