Healthcare Management

Partnering with Patients to Drive Shared Decisions, Better Value, and Care Improvement

---

On February 25 and 26, 2013, the Institute of Medicine’s (IOM’s) Roundtable on Value & Science-Driven Health Care, with support from the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation and the Blue Shield of California Foundation, hosted a workshop, called Partnering with Patients to Drive Shared Decisions, Better Value, and Care Improvement. The goals of the workshop were to identify and explore issues, attitudes, and approaches to increasing patient engagement in and demand for (1) shared decision making and better communication about the evidence in support of testing and treatment options; (2) the best value from the health care they receive; and (3) use of the data generated in the course of their care experience for care improvement (see Box 1-1). The focus was on building awareness and demand from patients and families for better care at lower costs and to create a health care system that learns and improves continuously.
