Health services research (HSR) can demonstrate and advance the value of rehabilitation. However, involvement of rehabilitation researchers in HSR is restricted due to limited exposure and understanding of its scope. This session will provide an overview of HSR for investigators and clinicians. Attendees will be encouraged to explore the diversity of HSR domains and associated methodologies, using applied research examples provided by the presenters to help delineate the scope of health services research and its potential impact.
