Abstract

Integrated delivery systems that promote learning and flexibility will be better prepared to face the challenges imposed by a complex and competitive environment. The integration of learning into these systems requires a shared vision, facilitative leadership, and highly functioning communication channels within an organic structure. Strategies that promote positive attitudes toward change are necessary for learning as is the provision of resources, training, incentives, and rewards that support learning, and feedback on how new administrative and clinical practices advance the mission and goals of the system.
