Session (CTI)

This session will examine the growing role of open claims databases in HEOR/RWE by highlighting their strengths—such as enhanced population diversity, increased sample sizes, and improved data recency—as well as their challenges, including data fragmentation and potential biases. Speakers shall discuss current evidence utilizing open claims, methodological strategies and analytical frameworks that can mitigate limitations and improve the robustness of real world evidence. The session will culminate with guidance on best practices, and the optimal use of open or hybrid claims data to strengthen real-world evidence generation.
