Patient-Reported Outcomes in Esophageal Diseases

In my introductory comments to the practice management section last year, I wrote about cultivating competencies for value-based care. One of the key competencies was patient centeredness. Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and patient experience measures specifically were highlighted as examples of meaningful tools for achieving patient centeredness. Starting with this month's contribution by Drs Reed and Dellon on PROs in esophageal disease, we begin a series of articles focused on this important construct.
