- Abstract:
- This report focuses on issues associated with two particular aspects of All-Payer Claims Databases (APCD) research: the use of APCDs to conduct patient-centered outcomes research (PCOR) and the challenges of multi-state APCD research. PCOR aims to generate evidence about the effectiveness of treatments, services, and other health care interventions on the full range of outcomes that patients, caregivers, clinicians, policymakers, and other stakeholders have identified as important. The following report explores the use of APCDs for these two purposes, including presenting findings from a series of discussions with officials at six state APCDs, data vendors, and researchers who have used data from multiple state APCDs; example research plans for two multi-state use case studies; and a prototype data request application that could be used for the purposes of creating a standardized application for requesting APCD data from multiple states.
