RESEARCH INTO VALUE-BASED HEALTH AND CARE
Whilst the principles of VBHC are understood, there is an urgent need for research to inform the evolution of VBHC and how best it can be implemented in diverse health and care economies. Only through research and dissemination of knowledge underpinned by academic rigour can we know how best to define and measure the outcomes that matter to people as part of their routine care; what societal value really is; how to create shared value fairly through long-term partnerships with industry; how to evolve the VBHC model to span health and social care and across longitudinal care pathways; how Value-Based Health and Care supports delivery of Prudent Healthcare and its global equivalents. The VBHC Academy is working with health and care systems and life science industry partners to provide thought leadership as well as to investigate how to overcome these challenges of adoption and implementation. We are keen to work with other partners to accelerate understanding.
Our current research programme has FOUR themes:
REDUCING THE BURDEN OF OUTCOMES MEASUREMENT
COLLABORATION AND PARTNERSHIP TO DELIVER VALUE IN HEALTH AND CARE
DESIGN AND OPERATION OF OUTCOME-BASED AGREEMENTS FOR MEDICINES, DEVICES AND ATMP s
UNDERSTANDING AND MEASURING SOCIETAL VALUE
