Due to intense market competition and escalating health care costs, payers are increasingly pressured to contain costs. While evidence-based outcome research is central to quantifying value and optimizing resources, it is often not considered in actual policy and “real world” reimbursement decisions. This session explores the gaps and innovative models in US for integrating outcome research into policy and benefit design decisions to optimize value to consumers, payers, and society. Speakers will discuss US experience and implications for China.
