Summit Overview
Part II of the Alliance for Health Policy’s 2020 Signature Series focused on the Voice of the Patient. During this Summit, we examined the patient’s voice across several levels of health care design, delivery, and measurement. Throughout this three-day event, we studied how the patient voice is collected, how it supports shared-decision making, and how it is leveraged in policy translation efforts to improve patient experience and build healthier futures.
Attendees heard from patient advocates, industry professionals, and top thought leaders on topics such as:
- Patient interaction best practices
- Helping patients navigate the health care system
- The impact of bias on patient trust in medicine
- Making data actionable for health care system redesign
