An initiative of AcademyHealth, the Consumer Patient Researcher Roundtable (CPR) fosters collaborations among consumers, patients, researchers and delivery systems leaders committed to joint action to improve the research infrastructure and advance the use of electronic health data for quality improvement and research. CPR participants engage in deliberative dialogue and collaborative efforts in areas of shared interest and priority, including data governance (e.g., access, privacy), research infrastructure and methods.

Launched by AcademyHealth in 2011 with a small group of participants, the CPR has grown in both size and scope. Initial activities largely supported the production of work related to two AcademyHealth programs: the Electronic Data Methods (EDM) Forum and the PCORI Pilot Projects Learning Network. More recently, the group has cultivated opportunities independent of AcademyHealth programs and has several initiatives ongoing.
