APS Value Framework

The APS Value Framework is a tool used to evaluate the true worth of medical treatments by considering multiple factors beyond just clinical outcomes. It assesses benefits, risks, and the impact on quality of life, as well as economic aspects like costs. This comprehensive approach helps patients, healthcare providers, and policymakers make more informed decisions about which treatments offer the best overall value, balancing effectiveness with affordability and personal impact. Essentially, it aims to ensure healthcare resources are used efficiently while meeting patients' needs.
