We are currently seeking financial support to develop a pilot that will fine-tune health impact metrics and test making payments for products based on assessed health impact.

Outcomes and Benefits of the Pilot:

  1. Create a comprehensive metric to evaluate the health impact of medicines based on the actual reductions in mortality and morbidity each achieves.
  2. Determine how to apply this metric reliably through a field-test that focuses on a new drug’s introduction into a specific area. No attempt has ever been made to measure the health impact of a newly introduced medicine.
  3. Benefit people in the field-test area by giving them access to an important new product at an affordable price and by rewarding the innovator promoting its wide and effective use by those who can benefit from it.

We welcome contributions of any size. For more information about how your contribution will assist our work, please contact Ting Ting Cheng, Senior Project Manager, at tingting.cheng@healthimpactfund.org or 646-510-1195.
