approaches to setting national research
priorities. Pursuant to Section 1013 of
the Medicare Prescription Drug,

The EHC program was designed to

treatments, therapeutics, devices and
drugs to assist policymakers, health care
providers, clinicians, consumers, and
other stakeholders in making informed
decisions. The EHC program has offered
a platform for combining explicit

clinical effectiveness of pharmaceuticals
and other health care interventions, as
well as the translation and
dissemination of scientific findings into
meaningful messages for a wide variety
of audiences. It serves as an interface
between the clinical research entities
