Reflective Multicriteria for Healthcare Decision-Making? The EVIDEM Journey
2018
The authors discuss a framework for mulicriteria decision making for healthcare decision making that was created and used by the EVIDEM Collaboration between 2006 and 2017. This framework originally incorporated healthcare ethics, evidenced-based medicine, health economics, health technology assessment and multicriteria approaches to decision making. The authors present this modified 10th edition framework, which builds on these by enhancing the following 4 areas: universal healthcare, values and ethics, evidence-based interventions, and process transformation. The framework is applicable to all types of healthcare interventions, decisions and settings. Multicriteria decision making, using a framework like that presented by EVIDEM can be used to contribute to the creation of relevant, equitable and sustainable healthcare systems.
