The Role of Purchasers and Payers in the Clinical Research Enterprise
- Share to:
The goal of the workshop that is the topic of this summary report, The Roleof Purchasers and Payers in the Clinical Research Enterprise, was to examine how purchasers and payers interact with the various components of the Clinical Research Enterprise and to understand their perspective on what the vision of the enterprise should be. Representatives from purchaser organizations (employers), payer organizations (health plans and insurance companies), and other stakeholder organizations (voluntary health associations, researchers, research organizations, and the technology community) came together to explore the following questions: What do purchasers and payers need from the Clinical Research Enterprise? How have current efforts in clinical research met their needs? What are purchasers, payers, and other stakeholders willing to contribute to the enterprise? The workshop integrated the diverse views of the stakeholders and created a lively dialogue among the participants. Clinical research is defined broadly in this research, encompassing all patient oriented research, health services research, epidemiology, outcomes, and behavior research (see Appendix V). The language presented in this respect should not be viewed as an endorsement by the Clinical Research Roundtable or the Institute of Medicine of future action that is needed, but rather as an effort to synthesize the various perspectives presented.
