IVI, in partnership with AcademyHealth, released a joint report, “A Research Framework to Understand the Full Range of Economic Impacts on Patients and Caregivers,” for researchers, value assessors, and other decision-makers to address the full range of economic impacts on patients. This report was made possible through funding support from the Eugene Washington PCORI Engagement Awards program, an initiative of the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI).

During this year long initiative, IVI and AcademyHealth gathered insights and recommendations from more than 100 stakeholders to identify recommendations for researchers to incorporate patient and caregiver economic impacts into their work.
