The World Health Organization recognizes Sunday, April 7, 2024 as #WorldHealthDay. This year’s theme, “My Health, My Right,” includes a call to involve the public in health decision-making and knowing the health needs of populations and acting on them. These two facets of this year’s theme are central to our work at Modus Outcomes. Our mission is to give patients a voice in the clinical research and development process and to bring their experiences to bear on critical drug development decisions. We pride ourselves on learning as much as we can about unmet needs in various patient populations and providing actionable steps for our clients on how to make their programs more patient-centric. If, like us, you believe in the importance of including and understanding patients throughout medical decision-making processes, let’s work together. We are a team of consultants dedicated to these initiatives, with the background and experience to help you and your team succeed. Please reach out to Grégoire Desplanques, Operations & Innovation Director, with questions about how Modus Outcomes might be able to help you advance your patient-centered research. #WHO #WorldHealthDay #PatientVoice #PFDD #MyHealthMyRight

We take a patient-centred approach to all of the work we do at Lumiio, which means designing digital health programs that are optimized and empowering for patients. This is particularly important when working in rare disease spaces, where patients and their families often need to become their own disease experts. Digital health tools and platforms can help foster global communities for people living with rare diseases, offering support, information, and opportunities to help further research. Our CEO Blaine Penny spoke with the Health Innovation Hub about health innovation in Alberta, and the exciting future of digital health tools. Read the article: https://zurl.co/1epO

High-quality #laboratoryservices are the unsung heroes of effective health systems, playing a crucial role in guiding treatment decisions, combating #antimicrobialresistance, and monitoring emerging health threats. Yet despite their critical importance, laboratories, particularly in low- and middle-income countries, often struggle due to weak operational infrastructure, unreliable #supplychains, and a general scarcity of resources and expertise. I had the privilege of collaborating recently with colleagues from @Mott MacDonald and @ICF on an insightful action report, "Why Laboratory Investment Matters: Rethinking the Role of Laboratory Services in Global Health," that sheds light on these challenges and presents viable solutions for addressing them. Our report—which was presented at a recent one-day conference in Washington, DC, sponsored by @Management Sciences for Health, Mott MacDonald and ICF—stresses the importance of integrating laboratory networks, fostering partnerships with the private sector, professionalizing the sector, and ensuring equitable access to clinical services as pivotal steps toward improvement. In the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, the #globalhealth community has increasingly recognized the imperative of establishing and maintaining strong laboratory and diagnostic capacities worldwide. This moment presents a unique opportunity to turn our good intentions into concrete, impactful investments throughout the healthcare system. By working together, we can fortify laboratory services and build a healthier future for all.

The Duke-Margolis Institute for Health Policy Real-World Evidence Collaborative has published a new white paper, Regulatory Fit-for-Purpose Considerations for Patient-Generated Health Data. Holmusk participated in the working group led by the collaborative in 2023, whose collective contributions resulted in this white paper, which discusses the various types of patient-generated health data to summarize key indicators of relevance, reliability, and quality, and thus fit-for-purpose patient-generated health data. Holmusk is a proud member of the Duke-Margolis Real-World Evidence Collaborative since 2022, which engages stakeholders across government, industry, and academia to guide high-priority efforts aimed at improving the development and use of RWE.
