Insight Hub

Welcome to the Lung Health Foundation’s Insight Hub — Canada’s trusted source for evidence-based blueprints for improving lung health. Here, we publish reports that shine a light on what’s working, where gaps remain, and what needs to change.

Whether you’re a policymaker, healthcare professional, researcher, or someone living with a lung condition, this hub is here to help you stay informed — and maybe even inspired to advocate.

Reports

Our Process

Working Groups

Most Insight Hub reports are made possible by interprofessional working groups made up of clinicians, researchers, health system leaders, and individuals with lived experience. This collaboration helps ensure that our reports reflect both clinical and system-level realities.

Landscape Reports

Landscape reports are created to help translate existing, external recommendations into actionable guidance. For example, our 2026 Immunization Policy and Guidance Paper will help readers understand recommendations from the National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI), which are fundamentally rooted in a structured consensus process.

A Structured Consensus Process

When Insight Hub reports are created through Working Groups, we choose what we measure (and how!) through a structured consensus process. This helps balance different perspectives (policy, clinical, lived experience) so that no single viewpoint dominates the findings.  The process also allows the group to identify and clearly signal what matters most by rating the importance of each item. This is important because it helps people understand not just what the findings are, but which ones matter most and why — making the results easier to trust, use, and act on.

Quintuple Aim

When evaluating the healthcare system, Insight Hub reports use the Quintuple Aim, a widely adopted healthcare improvement framework that looks at five important domains:

WE MEASURE…

Population health

BY ASKING QUESTIONS LIKE…

“Are outcomes improving, worsening, or staying the same over time?”

Population health

“Are outcomes improving, worsening, or staying the same over time?”

Patient experience

“Do patients feel supported during treatment?”

Cost and efficiency

“Are there costs the system could avoid, like preventable hospitalizations?”

Equity and access

“Are Indigenous, racialized, or newcomer populations receiving appropriate care?”

Provider experience

“Do healthcare professionals have the resources they need to provide quality care?”
