Our mission

Promoting Patient-
Centered Healthcare

The Center for Innovation & Value Research is an independent nonprofit research organization working to make sure that all patients have access to the right care at the right time.

Putting the Patient at the Center

The delivery of healthcare in the United States is determined by factors that do not fully take into account the needs of patients and caregivers, in terms of ease of use, quality of life, financial burden, and health equity.
Our Goal

To support the use of equitable, transparent, patient-centered evidence to drive better decisions in the development of therapies, research, and policy for better patient outcomes. Learn More »

It is used by employers, payers, manufacturers, and policymakers, among others, to help determine how patients are treated and at what cost. Learn More »
