Project Scope
An ad hoc committee will conduct a study to recommend national priorities for comparative effectiveness research to be conducted or supported with funds from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.  The study will be informed by and extend the views of stakeholders and the recent and ongoing IOM work relevant to comparative effectiveness research such as that on the national capacity to identify what works in health care, standards for systematic reviews of evidence, and standards for developing trustworthy clinical practice guidelines.  After delivery of a report, a substantial effort will be expended to disseminate and build public interest in, and understanding of, the results of the project.

The project is sponsored by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the National Academies. The approximate start date for the project is February 18, 2009. A report will be issued at the end of the project.
