This week, Tony Coelho, chairman of the Partnership to Improve Patient Care (PIPC) sent a letter to the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation at Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Sherry Glied, urging the agency to work in close coordination with the new Patient-Center Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) as it considers developing an inventory of comparative effectiveness research (CER). PIPC sent the letter in response to HHS soliciting recommendations on how to build a CER database.
