Children affected by the opioid epidemic need a complex array of services and supports to safeguard their health and wellbeing, including child protective services, legal representation, educational services, comprehensive physical and mental health care, and often foster care placement coupled with family reunification strategies. Timely access to these services is especially difficult in rural areas.

Traditional value assessment frameworks that focus solely on a narrowly defined cost effectiveness perspective do not adequately reflect the broader value of innovation.  The potential introduction of new medicines to treat Alzheimer’s Disease challenges existing frameworks. Increasingly, discussion is focusing on extending the paradigm to capture broader elements of value (e.g.

One Health recognizes the existential interconnectedness of humans, animals and their shared environment. It is key to ensuring the healthy and sustainable future of the planet and the people, flora and fauna that live on it. One Health encompasses topics such as inter-species transmission of infectious agents (zoonoses), antimicrobial resistance, economics of One Health programs, and One Health in sustainable food systems.

Determining reliable estimates of the survival gain offered by new therapies compared to standard of care is a critical component in establishing their incremental cost-effectiveness. Inaccurate results will lead to inappropriate estimates of lifetime health benefit and ultimately sub-optimal healthcare decision-making. New technologies with different mechanisms of action can have distinct and complex patterns of survival bringing new challenges for the assessment of their long-term benefit.In this webinar, we will be discussing this issue in relation to cancer immunotherapy.

The webinar will present an overview of societal benefits of biosimilars, how these are measured, how the United States (US) and select markets are tracking in attaining these benefits, and potential solutions for advancing the evidence of potential benefits into action.  By way of societal benefits, biosimilars have been widely expected to improve patient access to life-saving biologics while reflecting in substantial cost savings.  A RAND report estimates US cost savings of over $50 billion in 10 years.  However, there is wide variability in the estimates as to how biosimilars may benefit

Traditionally, healthcare organizations scheduled providers without visibility into exam room availability. However, when COVID-19 hit, health systems needed to quickly understand their capacity, including immediate visibility into available providers and rooms.Now, as clinic volumes approach pre-COVID levels, health systems are again forced to rethink capacity. Should we hire more providers? Acquire more space?
