What does the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) support?

  1. Creation of new pharmaceutical drugs

  2. Health services research initiatives

  3. Medical equipment manufacturing

  4. Hospital construction and design

The correct answer is: Health services research initiatives

The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) supports health services research initiatives. This agency focuses on improving the quality, safety, efficiency, and effectiveness of healthcare services in the United States. Health services research helps to identify the most effective ways to organize, manage, finance, and deliver high-quality care to patients. Options A, C, and D are not aligned with the primary focus of AHRQ, which is on research related to healthcare services rather than pharmaceutical drugs, medical equipment manufacturing, or hospital construction and design.
