IVI is a 501(c)3 research organization created to raise the level of discussion around value in health care by bringing together all participants in the system—academics, patients, patient advocates, payers, life sciences companies, providers, delivery systems, and other stakeholders—to find common ground in the approach for measuring value. In doing so, we hope to drive waste out of the system, mitigating the rising costs of health care while preserving incentives to develop medical breakthroughs for future generations.
