Why PCORI?
! Research has not answered many questions patients face
! People want to know which treatment is right for them
! Patients need information they can understand and use

“The purpose of the Institute is to assist patients, clinicians, purchasers, and policy-makers in making informed health decisions by advancing the quality and relevance of evidence through research and evidence synthesis that considers variations in patient subpopulations and the dissemination of research findings with respect to the relative health outcomes, clinical effectiveness, and appropriateness of medical treatments, services.”

Our Mission
PCORI helps people make informed health care decisions, and improves health care delivery and outcomes, by producing and promoting high integrity, evidence-based information that comes from research guided by patients, caregivers and the broader health care community.

Our Work Answers Patients’ Questions
Given my personal characteristics, conditions and preferences…
“What should I expect will
happen to me?”
“What are my options and what are the
potential benefits and
harms of those options?”
“What can I do to improve the outcomes that
are most important to
me?”
“How can clinicians and the
care delivery systems they work
in help me make the best decisions about my health and healthcare?”

How We Review Research Proposals
12
Who: Each proposal is reviewed by two scientists, a patient, and another stakeholder. What: Reviewers critique and score applications, making recommendations that our staff and Board of Governors consider carefully in deciding which applications to approve. How: We provide training so all participants are prepared and understand PCORI’s review criteria. When: You can apply at any time to serve as reviewer.

National Patient-Centered Clinical Research Network
! Clinical Data Research Networks (CDRNs), which are system-based networks (such as hospital systems) that have the potential to become an ideal electronic network, without structural impediments.
! Patient-Powered Research Networks (PPRNs), which are groups of patients interested in forming a research network and in participating in research.
! A Coordinating Center which will provide technical and logistical assistance under the direction of the Steering Committee and PCORI Staff.
