description OBJECTIVES/GOALS: The Learning Health System (LHS) framework at Columbia University Irving Medical Center (CUIMC) aims to optimize health system performance through enhancing the patient and care team experience, reducing inequities, costs and improving population health outcomes, through a collaborative, interdisciplinary and data driven approach. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: In alignment with the Quintuple Aim, the LHS program at CUIMC is composed of five critical components: data integration (particularly using Epic EHR and real-time informatics data), utilization of evidence-based practices, a methodology for continuous improvement, and leadership commitment. Our methodology incorporates an iterative process improvement project cycle into an integrated infrastructure and governance of an academic medical center and its hospital partners to fulfill rapid project design and implementation. The LHS at CUIMC aims to bring a cultural shift through stakeholder engagement, symposia, training, accelerated pilot award opportunities, and building external partnership engagement. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: At CUIMC, our definition of a successful integration of a LHS framework is a cultural shift in thinking, method, and continuous improvement. The LHS program has developed multidisciplinary teams that are involved in defining and sharing data, design, and project management resources. In 2021, the first annual symposium was launched and brought together over 200 stakeholders from across the organization to support continuous education, training, and scaling of the framework. As a result of this foundation, two pilot initiatives have been funded and launched, the innovation accelerator model developed and is supporting over ten unique innovative and transformative clinical and operational programs, and several research grant applications have been submitted citing learning health system methodologies. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Our LHS framework has broken down silos and institutional barriers, creating a network of stakeholder groups. Our interdisciplinary approach has enabled us to create sustainable processes, resources and training on rapid, rigorous design, evaluation and implementation of interventions using real-time informatics data and digital health tools.
