Medical/Biomaterials: Driving for Delivered Patient Value

Tuesday, September 29, 2026: 8:00 AM-9:20 AM
308A (Québec City Convention Centre)
"Value conscious" can have multiple meanings depending on audience and context. Here, we are driving at total value delivered to patient recipients-of-care. Value in this track does not necessarily mean a lower cost device or therapy. What we have in mind is the therapeutic value delivered for the cost paid. Cost could be in delivery or healing time, or purely monetary direct cost. How can we do better as innovators keeping patient value in mind as we seek to reduce infection, enhance follow-up outcomes through visualization, deliver improved long term outcomes through absorbable therapies and develop new more inert alloys.
