The EuroQol Group, which has funded or co-funded 60 scientific studies in the past financial year, is pleased that ViH has chosen to shine a light on some current research in this area. In the past financial year, As highlighted by Andrew Lloyd, on the ISPOR website, this research space is dynamic; constantly evolving in response to public policy changes and advances in the field of health measurement and valuation. The EuroQol Group is committed to meeting this challenge through a continuing programme of research and development into instruments that describe and value health.
