Representatives from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC, Division of HIV/AIDS Prevention), the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA, HIV/AIDS Bureau), and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) continued to convene a workgroup to focus on implementation science. The membership of the workgroup expanded to include the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of AIDS Research and the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), as well as the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). The overall goal of the workgroup is to increase collaborative efforts and decrease duplication of efforts related to implementing and studying the implementation of a broad range of interventions related to the prevention and treatment of HIV. To achieve this goal, the workgroup agrees to pursue a number of broad actions, including: 1) clearly define implementation science for the purpose of the workgroup; 2) understand current implementation science activities and interests within each agency and in the HIV prevention field; 3) identify and define current implementation science successes and challenges within each agency; 4) identify shared priorities and individual priorities for each agency and how future activities could address identified challenges; 5) within the workgroup, share lessons learned and successful strategies for program implementation and how using implementation science might advance implementation efforts; 6) advance the broader dissemination and adoption of key result and evidence-based, evidence-informed, or novel implementation strategies to programmatic and research partners; 7) align technical assistance efforts to support programs to integrate evidence-based, evidence-informed, and novel implementation strategies; and 8) support the advancement of implementation science as a field.

The charge of the Federal Interagency TBI Working Group includes promoting collaboration among federal agencies. A goal of this committee is to develop a national “Roadmap” for Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). This strategic planning effort will represent the collective expertise of providers, educators, advocates, federal/state/national organizations, and individuals with TBI and their families and will result in a consensus document outlining the critical elements of a successful system of care for TBI service delivery. Outcomes of the planning effort include the adoption of National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) Common Data Elements for TBI research, and creation of the FITBIR Informatics System to store data from TBI patients and controls enrolled in studies funded by the Department of Defense (DoD) and National Institutes of Health (NIH). The FITBIR Informatics System was developed to share data across the entire TBI research field and to facilitate collaboration between laboratories, as well as interconnectivity with other informatics platforms.https://fitbir.nih.gov/

The Federal Interagency Workgroup on Autism Spectrum Disorders (FIWA) is composed of representatives from departments and agencies across the U.S. Government, who voluntarily meet to coordinate research, services, and support activities related to autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The FIWA was first convened as an interagency workgroup to address requirements of the Autism Collaboration, Accountability, Research, Education, and Support (CARES) Act of 2014 (PL 113-157). The Autism Cares Act of 2014 required that the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) designate a National Autism Coordinator to oversee national ASD research, service, and support activities, and prevent unnecessary duplication of effort, in consultation with the Secretaries of Defense and Education. The Autism Cares Act of 2014 also required that this coordination of activities take into account the Strategic Plan developed by the Interagency Autism Coordinating Committee (IACC), and requested a Report to Congress concerning young adults with ASD and the challenges related to the transition from existing school-based services to those services available during adulthood.

Federal Interagency Workgroup on Improving Diagnostic Safety and Quality in Healthcare was established in response to the Senate Report 115-150, which requested that AHRQ convene a cross-agency work group to address the lack of dedicated research into improving medical diagnosis and in particular, diagnostic failures that lead to patient harm. The Senate language was in response to the 2015 National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine "Improving Diagnosis in Health Care." This report was a continuation of two previously published reports from the Institute of Medicine: To Err Is Human: Building a Safer Health System(2000) and Crossing the Quality Chasm: A New Health System for the 21st Century(2001). These reports bring attention to the specific problem of diagnostic errors and their effect on the quality and safety of healthcare.
