Dear AHVAP Members and Partners:
I am excited to share with you an exciting new Position Statement that is now available for both AHVAP members and the general public: Commitment Pledge for Healthcare Value Analysis Leaders and Professionals. This newly developed and released document was designed to help demonstrate our individual commitment as professionals within the specialty. This new pledge is an important professional tool that signals one's dedication to the core tenants of our profession. AHVAP invites you to sign the commitment pledge and return it to AHVAP HQ via email: info@ahvap.org, and in return, we will send you a special digital badge in recognition of your commitment to the specialty. We will also recognize you on our official social media channels. One special AHVAP member will be selected to receive a prize for their participation in this challenge. The contest closes June 1. We look forward to receiving your Commitment pledges!
I would like to thank the efforts of our contributors to this position statement who are listed below. This highly skilled group of experts from across our membership has rigorously worked on the creation and editing of this document over the last month. This is a Position Statement that all AHVAP members and healthcare value analysis professionals should be proud of!
