IS HEALTH OUTCOMES RESEARCH VALUABLE TO REAL DECISION MAKERS: A CANDID DISCUSSION WITH MEDICAL AND PHARMACY DIRECTORS
Despite its tremendous growth over the past 20 years, our field has not achieved the expected impact on health technology decisions in the United States and elsewhere. A panel of medical and pharmacy directors will be asked to provide their perspective on the value of health outcomes research, including where and how research findings are being used to make coverage decisions. Panelists will also provide recommendations on the use of health outcomes research in real decisions.
