Why is this project important
Practising Patient Engagement & Patient Experience Data (PED) raises new questions and needs that require collaborative solutions
The generation and collection of data from patients’ experiences across all aspects of their lives (referred to as Patient Experience Data- PED) is emerging as a critical aspect in research and healthcare to deliver evidence-based patient unmet needs, health outcomes and impact.
PED is not exclusive to patient engagement, but complementary, and is needed to build a patient-centred, comprehensive and robust data resource that can be used by all stakeholders in the health ecosystem.
Global alingment between stakeholders and different applications (e.g. devices or medicines approval and reimbursement) is needed to avoid a fragmented approach, divergence and/or duplication and to streamline efforts.

Recent Trends in the Fast-Evolving Patient Engagement & Patient Experience Data Landscape
As many organizations and stakeholder groups progress to address the gaps that still exist with engaging patients, it is important that the healthcare community as a whole is aware of the evolving regulatory and HTA landscape.
Highlights from this paper
- In recent years, patient engagement has become more prevalent in medicines development
- The development and use of patient experience data is one way to further engage patients
- Regulators and HTA bodies are increasingly embracing patient experience data to help with decision-making
- Current regulatory and HTA guidance and approaches are helping to set expectations and drive evidence generation
- This clarity and definition will help to broaden the development and use of patient experience data and increases the impact on healthcare decision-making
How will the project advance
In collaboration with NHC we are organizing an overview of related stakeholders, experiences and initiatives integrating patient engagement and PED, guidances and reports.
This work considers the needs and interests of each of the stakeholders involved, providing the opportunity to optimize and streamline patient engagement and data collection.
The vision is to enable the collection of patient experience data which highlights the unmet needs critical to inform decision making throughout the product lifecycle and the health system. Data generation and collection are better designed and further enriched through patient engagement and contribution of patient expertise throughout the process.
What will the project achieve?
Articulate the Common Rational for Patient Engagement & PED
Clarity and Start Identifying and Developing Good Practices
This project will consider stakeholder learnings and experiences with the integration of patient engagement design of PED to decision making. An initial analysis will help to inform to co-creation of a vision for patient engagement and PED in R&D lifecycles in health systems, building a foundation for 3 primary outcomes.
Patient Engagement & PED Common Rational Awareness and Call to Action (CTA) publication
The overlapping needs and methods for patient engagement and PED amongst HTAs, regulators, patients, researchers, industry and other stakeholders will be identified to develop a CTA publication.
PED Global Taxonomy
Co-creation of a global taxonomy to support all stakeholders in the integration of patient engagement and patient engagement development.
Patient Engagement & PED Roadmap – From Design to Decision Making WITH Patients
Building from the foundation of the CTA publication, and working to identify good practices to overcome gaps and challenges.
