Liver disease remains a significant global health challenge, responsible for nearly 2 million deaths each year 🌎

But beyond the statistics are the lived experiences of patients and families navigating long-term treatment, complications, and varying access to care.

The ICHOM Liver Disease Working Group is developing a standardized set of outcomes to define what high-quality liver disease care should measure. To ensure this framework reflects what truly matters, we are inviting patients and carers to participate in a short Patient Validation Survey.

If you are living with liver disease, or caring for someone who is, your perspective is essential.

Your feedback will help shape a globally recognized outcomes framework used by health systems worldwide to improve care.

👉 The survey takes only a few minutes and is currently available in the US, UK, and New Zealand: https://ichom.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_cCvnDgLFhhsseAm

For patients, being part of value-based healthcare means more than sharing experiences. It means being heard and helping shape how care is delivered and measured.

At the ICHOM Conference, patient voices directly inform how outcomes are defined, how success is measured, and how healthcare systems evolve. Patients are not observers. They are active contributors, influencing conversations that impact care pathways, priorities, and real-world decision-making.

Hear the patient perspective at least year's conference 📢 https://youtu.be/aKLrSvUOT8o?si=1JAQwQ65B7Ya5OWg
