Healthcare systems strive to decrease illness and treatment burdens while increasing access to care and reducing costs. Yet data trends in the US indicate troubling metrics: life expectancy has declined, and the cost of healthcare continues to rise for Americans. Prof. Elwyn and his research team at The Dartmouth Institute are working on a new approach that could help correct the course of these trends. Coproduction in healthcare is a framing that elevates the patient’s status in clinical care, so that the value of medical services is defined and designed together with clinicians and patients. This approach has already shown profound improvements in health outcomes, efficiency, satisfaction, and cost.

Join Dr. Manish K. Mishra & Prof. Elizabeth Carpenter-Song in conversation with Prof. Glyn Elwyn. Healthcare systems aim to reduce illness and costs, but US life expectancy is declining, and costs are rising. Learn how ‘coproduction’ in healthcare can redirect these trends.
