#246: Valuing the Signal and the Noise in Health Care Horizon Scanning
Limited Capacity seats available
Component Type: Forum
Level: Intermediate
CE: ACPE 1.25 Knowledge UAN: 0286-0000-16-574-L04-P; CME 1.25; IACET 1.25; RN 1.25

Horizon scanning is a method for identifying and monitoring interventions and innovations that have potential to impact clinical care, patient outcomes and the broader health care system. Dedicated horizon scanning programs focused on American and international markets function as publicly available tools useful for setting research agendas; planning regulatory and coverage/payment decisions; and providing early alerts to patients, clinicians, and health technology assessors. In this forum, representatives from American- and European-based horizon scanning efforts will demonstrate how both hits (early captured innovations with major impacts) and misses (e.g., non-identified interventions, non-impactful interventions), and the broader horizon scanning system methodology can provide a useful view of emerging technologies and the future health care landscape.

Learning Objectives

Identify horizon scanning resources and findings; Describe uses for horizon scanning findings by research funders, technology assessment organizations and coverage/payer groups; Describe the use of horizon scanning for understanding the larger landscape of innovation in a variety of clinical areas.

#348: Interpreting Meaningful Change on PROs: When to Talk, When to Use Cumulative Distribution Functions, and When to ROC
Limited Capacity seats available
Component Type: Forum
Level: Intermediate
CE: ACPE 1.25 Knowledge UAN: 0286-0000-16-572-L01-P; CME 1.25; IACET 1.25; RN 1.25

Methods to interpret the meaning of change in patient-reported outcome (PRO) scores often do not directly include perspectives of potential stakeholders. In this session, we will discuss how common and novel methods to define meaningful change can enhance insight into treatment benefit.

Learning Objectives

Distinguish when to use different methods to identify meaningful individual-level change and group-level differences on a patient-reported outcome; Recognize issues related to assessment frequency and missing data that impact the ability to assess treatment benefit.
