Applying Implementation Science Principles to Design the ACR Peer Learning Pathway: A Case Study

In 2000, the Institute of Medicine reported that errors remained a major threat to patients in US health systems and sought to “develop and deploy approaches to identify, learn from, and reduce diagnostic errors and near misses in clinical practice” [1]. Subsequently, formal quality programs began to form in all disciplines of health care, including the ACR’s score-based peer review (PR) system, RADPEER®. RADPEER req uires judging interpretations of prior studies by colleagues and scoring the degree of clinical significance for any diagnostic discrepancies.
