PCORI is seeking input from the community related to the findings gleaned from a new report, Stakeholder Views on Components of "Patient-Centered Value" in Health and Health Care. Read the draft report below.

The 2019 law reauthorizing PCORI’s funding clarifies that PCORI-funded studies should capture, as appropriate, "the full range of clinical and patient-centered outcomes," specifically adding "the potential burdens and economic impacts" of healthcare services to the patient-centered outcomes and clinical effectiveness measures that have been the hallmarks of the research we have funded to date.

PCORI initiated a multi-step process better understand stakeholder views on how collecting burden and economic impact data intersects with considerations of “value” in health and health care and how the communities PCORI serves define “patient-centered value.” This work involved a landscape review, convenings of stakeholders comprising (i) one-to-one interviews, (ii) small-group workshops with stakeholders, and finally (iii) a large, multi-stakeholder convening.

This work has resulted in a draft inventory of attributes of patient-centered value, presented here for review by and input from the public and patients.

PCORI invites input from our stakeholders, the broader healthcare community, and the public.
