PCORI Hosts National Patient and Stakeholder Dialogue

From the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute:

"The Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) will hold a National Patient and Stakeholder Dialogue on February 27, 2012. We will present PCORI's Draft National Priorities and Research Agenda and welcome three-and-a-half hours of public comment by individuals attending in person and by phone. In addition, there will be two moderated discussion panels on the priorities and agenda featuring patient advocates, caregivers, clinicians and other stakeholders.

The event is part of PCORI's effort to receive broad public input before the comments are considered in a process to revise and adopt the priorities and agenda. A draft event schedule is provided below and a detailed schedule will be distributed soon. We hope you will register today to join us in person, watch via webcast or listen by telephone. You can register to attend and provide public comment here.

If you have any questions, please feel free to email us at info@pcori.corg.
