PCORI centers on patient-centered outcomes research and actively includes patients and other stakeholders in all stages of research—from setting priorities to designing studies and sharing results. This involvement means PCORI does not exclude patients; rather, patient perspectives help shape what gets studied and how findings are applied in real-world care. It also isn’t limited to private sector drug trials; PCORI funds a wide range of health questions, including non-drug interventions and comparative effectiveness research, with a focus on practical impact for patients. So the statements that PCORI involves patients and conducts broad, inclusive research are accurate.
