Magnitude of Clinical Benefit Scale

The Magnitude of Clinical Benefit Scale (MCBS) is a tool used by healthcare professionals to assess how much a new treatment or intervention improves patient outcomes compared to existing options. It considers factors like the effectiveness, safety, and impact on quality of life. By assigning scores, the scale helps clinicians, patients, and policymakers understand the real-world significance of a medical intervention, guiding better treatment choices and resource allocation based on the level of benefit provided.
