MDIC 2019 ANNUAL REPORT
MDIC’S INITIATIVES AND PROGRAMS MDIC operates initiatives focused on four key areas: Clinical Science, Data Science and Technology, Health Economics and Patient Value, and the National Evaluation System for health Technology Coordinating Center (NESTcc). Here we present 2019’s updates and accomplishments of each initiative and the programs that fall within the initiatives, when applicable.
CLINICAL SCIENCE The Clinical Science initiative, which is foundational to us as an organization, addresses the barriers to collecting adequate clinical evidence in support of new medical technology by creating blueprints for innovative clinical trial techniques, developing standards and metrics for effective clinical trial design, and encouraging the collection of adequate and appropriate clinical and patient preference data.
Programs: • Clinical Diagnostics • Early Feasibility Studies • Science of Patient Input
