Opportunity to Submit Scientific Information

The Effective Health Care (EHC) Program is interested in receiving supplemental evidence and data (SEADs) for systematic reviews that are relevant to the questions in our evidence reports. To ensure that it has full access to relevant research, whether or not it is published, the EHC Program is interested in receiving SEADs containing detailed study-specific information. Opportunities to submit scientific information are available for:

Measures for Primary Healthcare Spending
(Available for submission until June 17, 2023)

This technical brief will summarize and present the approaches used in the U.S. based literature to estimate primary care spending, including definitions and datasets utilized. The review will include the pros and cons of the various inclusions, exclusions, and calculation methods, and by whom each is primarily used and for what purposes. The technical brief will also include an evidence map of the association between different PCS definitions and health outcomes for use by end users of this review. Finally, identification of research gaps will advance the goal of moving the field toward PCS standardization.

(Section 944 (c) of the Public Health Service Act [42 U.S.C. 299c 3(c)] requires that information collected for research conducted or supported by AHRQ that identifies individuals or establishments be used only for the purpose for which it was supplied unless they consent to the use of the information for another purpose.)
