3. NQF to Develop National Standards, Measurement for Patient Decision Aids

According to a recent press release, “As people demand a greater say in decisions about their healthcare, a variety of tools called decision aids are increasingly being used to make it easier for patients and their clinicians to discuss treatment options. The National Quality Forum will help make sense of the proliferation of these patient resources, which commonly include pamphlets, videos, or web-based resources, by developing national standards for decision aids and a process for their certification. NQF also will work with a multistakeholder expert panel to define concepts for how to measure decision quality and shared decision-making. ‘To transform the nation's healthcare, shared decision-making between patients and providers must be much more routine,’ said Helen Burstin, MD, MPH, chief scientific officer of NQF. ‘NQF's work will develop standards to identify those evidence-based, reliable decision aids people need to make good personal decisions about their care and treatment and to be better equipped to discuss those decisions with their clinicians.’” Click here to view the press release. 

4. Interview: Comparative Effectiveness Research and Healthcare Disparities

In an interview with The American Journal of Managed Care, Penny Mohr, MA, senior program officer for improving healthcare systems at the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute, discusses comparative effectiveness research, healthcare disparities, and patient-centered care. “[Mohr:] I think it's very essential for patient-centered care because comparative effectiveness research by definition is really to look at choices that are appropriate to patients. And so when you're looking at those choices and doing research on which item works better than the other, the patients are making those choices and the research really needs to inform those choices. So it should relate directly back to patient-centered care.” Click here to view the article. 

5. Video: Marc Boutin on the Need for Change in Healthcare

6. Video: Sarah Greene on Comparative Effectiveness Research and Patient Engagement
