  • What is patient-centeredness, actually?
  • What programs are working and how do we know?                
  • Will patient-centeredness have staying power?                          
We’ll ask these and other provocative questions in a series of interactive and engaging sessions.

Join leading policy makers such as Margaret Hamburg, MD, Commissioner, FDA; Carolyn Clancy, MD, Director, Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality; Jeffrey Shuren, MD, JD, Director, Center for Devices and Radiologic Health, FDA; Janet Woodcock, MD, Director, Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER), FDA; Joe V. Selby, MD, MPH, Executive Director, Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute; Karen Ignagni, President and CEO, American's Health Insurance Plans; and a host of other nationally-recognized experts including policy makers, practitioners, and researchers in a truly fresh examination of the meaning, state of the evidence, progress, and implications of patient-centeredness.

This is two day meeting, held Tuesday, November 29 and Wednesday, November 30. The venue is FDA’s White Oak Campus in Silver Spring, MD (suburban Washington, DC).

There is no fee to attend the program, but space is limited and advance registration is required.
