How Should Health Systems Science Promote Health Systems' Sustainability?

Abstract:
An expanded sustainability framework for health systems science (HSS) could promote health systems' capacity to deliver efficient, effective care for patients and to care for the planet by decreasing emissions and solid waste while cutting costs. This framework aligns well with the HSS mission to reform curricula and practice and has direct implications for patient care and systems-based practice competency development. Training clinicians to think critically about health system function, resilience, and sustainability will help prepare trainees to lead, innovate, and transform current health systems to prioritize planetary health, resource stewardship, and patient outcomes in a circular supply chain with low emissions.
