Abstract
Letter to the Editor We are writing regarding the Innovations in Pharmacy commentary entitled, "Evidentiary Standards for Patient-Centered Core Impact Value Claims."(1) We thank Dr. Langley for commenting on the National Health Council's work on patient-centered core impact sets (PC-CIS), an initiative spearheaded by the nonprofit organization and its membership with multi-stakeholder representation and input.(2-4) While we have tried to be clear and transparent about the intent of PC-CIS, the commentary made it apparent to us we need to (and will) do more to be explicit about what a PC-CIS is and is not, and its possible downstream uses. We believe the PC-CIS concept was misrepresented in the commentary and want to provide clarification for readers so they can consider the merits of the initiative for themselves.
