Ambassador

Thomas Scheid

Healthcare Collaborative of Greater Columbus – Advisor

Years Involved in Patient Centered Research: 2-5 years
State: Ohio

Thomas Scheid was introduced to PCORI when he was part of the research team on a PCORI-funded project that started in 2014. As we worked through the process of operationalizing an effective patient advisory council, he was so impressed with the insights and knowledge of PCORI staff on patient engagement that he was motivated to become a PCORI Ambassador. Scheid’s goal was to find ways to help spread the word about patient-centered outcomes research (PCOR) and the difference it could make for patients and families. His application to become part of the Patient Engagement Advisory Panel was accepted in 2017, and he is currently its Co-Chair. Although accepted as a PCORI Merit Reviewer this past year, he has not yet been part of any reviews in this capacity. However, as a PCORI Peer Reviewer, Scheid has conducted numerous reviews of research summaries for the PCOR Translation Center.
