CCNet in KEYSTONE

CCNet is a consumer-led collaboration that aims to raise awareness of evidence-based healthcare, recruit other consumers, and disseminate information about reviews. However, barriers such as lack of funding and coordination hinder its effectiveness. Recommendations include central funding for administrative support and a quality improvement process for consumer input. The future focus for CCNet should be to support consumers and their entities within the Collaboration and explain the role of evidence in healthcare globally.

  2. From CCNet External Review ( October 2009) • CCNet’s ROLE • As reported by Review Groups and by consumers: • *Commenting on reviews, protocols, PLSs • Reported frequently by consumers, but less frequently by Review Groups: • * Raising awareness of evidence based health care • * Recruiting other consumers • * Disseminating information about reviews • BARRIERS • * Lack of funding • * Difficulties to be involved in CCNet • 61 % of reviewers not in CCNet • Lack of coordination • Language barriers • RECOMMENDATIONS • *A part-time administrative support funded centrally • * A quality improvement process for consumer input to reviews • * The CC to develop a Consumer Participation Plan

  3. The structure and function of CCNet was a major discussion item for Auckland (March 2010): • In preparation for this session : • * A Consumer Involvement Advisory Group (CIAG, Dec 2009-March 2010) • *David Tovey and Lorne Becker to chair the group • *The preparation of background papers (Dell Horey 2010) • (Bec Hanley 2010)

  4. Steering Group Bulletin (Auckland/March 2010): It was agreed that the future focus for CCNet should be two-fold: to support consumers and their entities within and across the Collaboration; and to explain the role of the Collaboration and of evidence in health care to consumers and their representative organizations globally.  It was also agreed that achieving this focus will require additional resources, as well as some changes in the structure and functions of CCNet.  To address the resource issue, the Steering Group approved funding for a full-time consumer co-ordinator for the Collaboration, together with associated administrative support needed for such a position.  Issues of how the remit and structure of CCNet should change to incorporate these new responsibilities were not discussed in detail, but a subgroup of the Steering Group, including its two CCNet Representatives, both Co-Chairs, the Editor in Chief and the Chief Executive Officer, were identified to work on the next steps.
