1/3 Important read from AcademyHealth on what's happening to the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), the federal agency that funds research on how to make health care safer, higher quality, and more effective. Read why its dismantling matters far beyond academic research.

AHRQ Is Being Dismantled and the Consequences Will Reach Every Part of American Health Care

The field has rallied to support AHRQ with letters to Congress and HHS, lawsuits, a GAO investigation, and more.
