Amplify Impact: Health Economics of Patient Organisation Shared Services

International Health Economics, Research & Decision-Support Project

  • Six-country comparative assessment of administrative, operational and infrastructure constraints affecting patient organisations in Australia, the US, UK, India, Brazil and South Africa.
  • Identifies opportunities to improve organisational sustainability through shared services, reduced duplication and access to specialist capabilities.
  • Develops country-specific economic benchmarks and models potential cost savings, released organisational capacity, capability improvements and return on investment.
  • Provides a practical self-assessment toolkit enabling individual organisations and collaborations to evaluate when shared services are appropriate, beneficial or unsuitable.
  • Supports evidence-informed decisions on shared infrastructure, collective procurement and organisational independence, helping patient organisations direct more resources towards patient support, advocacy and health equity.
