... MEANINGFUL COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT TO ADVANCE HEALTH EQUITY IN HEALTH SYSTEMS TRANSFORMATION Sergio Aguilar-Gaxiola, professor of clinical internal medicine, founding director of the Center for Reducing Health Disparity, and director of the community engagement program at the University of California Davis Clinical Translational Science Center, noted that he is also co-chair of the National Academy of Medicine's (NAM's) organizing committee on Assessing Meaningful Community Engagement in Health and Health Care Programs and Policies.

... Aguilar-Gaxiola said the central goal of the model is to achieve health equity through transformed systems for health by addressing the drivers of health; the drivers of change in health and health care; and the social, political, racial, economic, historical, and environmental context. Aguilar-Gaxiola posed two questions for AHRQ to consider: How can AHRQ consider the elements of the National Academy of Medicine conceptual model for community engagement in its decision-making and strategic planning process structures as well as in the design and review of its funding opportunities for research dissemination and training?

... He added that the NAM conceptual model and the AHRQ strategic framework share several priorities, including • training the next generation of researchers; • building data, measurement, and analytic capacity; • accelerating uptake of evidence in practice; and • providing evidence to inform needed policy changes to sustain implementation of interventions that produce outcomes that matter to patients and address health inequities. He closed by emphasizing the NAM model and its methods can support AHRQ's training of the next generation of patient-centered outcomes researchers.

... He replied that the steering committee that preceded the full organizing committee had a substantial change in perspective just by including -- and listening to -- community members, pointing to the importance of iterating based on community input. An audience member asked Aguilar-Gaxiola to discuss how the community engagement conceptual model builds on community-oriented primary care (Institute of Medicine, 1983, 1984a, 1984b)
