Healthcare

Comparative Effectiveness Research

Assess treatment outcomes in defined patient populations using evidence-based research with meaningful measures of the costs of care and treatment outcomes.

  1. Data Integration and Database Development

    Sound policy development as well as analysis to inform policy ultimately rests on high-quality data. Thomson Healthcare has a distinguished history of developing databases and related tools to support research and analysis on healthcare costs, utilization, and quality.

  2. MarketScan Research Databases

    The gold standard in proprietary U.S. research databases, the MarketScan® data warehouse provides healthcare researchers access to fully integrated, de-identified, individual-level healthcare claims data to understand health economics and outcomes.
  3. Software and Database Development

    Designing and implementing unique databases and Web-based interfaces for research data collection, data dissemination, and database analysis.
  4. Statistical Informatics

    Healthcare policy development and decision making in many areas benefit from sound statistical information and analysis, presented in accessible form. Yet too often, sophisticated analyses are published only in technical journals and not delivered in useable ways to the policy makers who rely on them to guide decisions.
