Project: European Guideline Education and Cost-Conscious Healthcare (CoCoCare)
European Guideline Education and Cost-Conscious Healthcare (CoCoCare) is a training programme that teaches specialists to develop and implement high-quality, evidence-based guidelines and equips them with competences to act more cost-consciously.
The CoCoCare training programme launched in June 2019 during a full-day workshop with course participants in Oslo, which was a great success. The training is being developed by a unique consortium of partners from The Netherlands, Spain, Austria and the UK.
The colleagues from VHC, Silvia Evers, Ghislaine van Mastrigt and Irina Pokhilenko, have contributed to the knowledge transfer in the field of health economics on the development of cost conscious clinical practice guidelines.
