This year, we were finally able to meet in person again. Our consortium meeting took place from October 22 to 23 in Hamburg and was hosted by OptiMedis. We focussed on the results of the network meta-analysis, the COMPAR-EU platform and much more. Consortium meetings are very important for us, as they promote interactive group discussion and drive our work forward.

The Alerts address healthcare professionals, managers and other stakeholders looking for practical recommendations how to implement practices that enhance self-management and patient empowerment.
