CADTH seeks patients’ perspectives to improve the relevance and quality of our reviews. Also, to enable those possibly affected by the reviews to have an opportunity to contribute to them. For reimbursement reviews and provisional funding algorithms, CADTH invites patient groups to contribute relevant input and feedback.
