Colorado Program for Patient-Centered Decisions (Core/Program)
Directed by Dan D. Matlock, MD, MPH
The
Colorado Program for Patient-Centered Decisions is located at the Adult
and Child Center for Outcomes Research and Delivery Science
(ACCORDS). This collaboration takes a broad view of shared
decision-making and brings together multidisciplinary expertise in the development of materials, measurement of outcomes, and implementation
into practice settings. This group currently consists of 4 core
principle investigators and 7 research assistants and has been
successful in obtaining funding from foundations, the NIH, and the
Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute.
Mission Statement
Our goal is to empower patients and clinicians to make patient-centered decisions, to develop evidence-based tools and strategies to support those decisions, and to foster healthcare culture change.
