Current healthcare systems are struggling with rising costs and unbalanced quality of care. Integrated care (IC) is a worldwide trend in healthcare reforms designed to tackle these problems. ACT@Scale is a partnership of leading European regions, industry and academia which aims to identify, transfer and scale-up existing integrated healthcare practices. In this context, participating programs are applying iterative process improvement cycles using collaborative methodologies. The vision of learning health systems (LHS) is similar to IC, but it focuses on IT means as a change enabler for rapid and continuous knowledge integration into better outcomes. In this paper, we present the ACT@Scale program as an example of an LHS that monitors integrated care performance and effects of process improvement cycles.
