Health and Global Policy Institute (HGPI)/NCD Alliance Japan held the Second Advisory Board Meeting of the “Project for Considering the Future of Precision Medicine with Industry, Government, Academia, and Civil Society.” To avoid the potential spread of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), the meeting was held in a fully remote format and was closed to the public.
At the meeting, participants discussed the directions of solutions for the five discussion points identified at the first advisory board meeting (held December 14, 2021), which are listed below.
- Equity in the healthcare provision system and in access
- Building patient awareness and mechanisms for solving Ethical, Legal, and Social Issues (ELSI) and expanding Patient and Public Involvement (PPI)
- Assessment methods suitable for precision medicine
- Building systems for promoting R&D and making effective use of evidence
- Limits on the number of times insurance coverage is granted, limits on the timing for insurance coverage, and how to best provide testing and treatment
Moving forward, we will draft and publicize policy recommendations based on the discussions held at the first and second advisory board meetings as well as on the multifaceted opinions we gathered from multi-stakeholders from industry, Government, academia, and civil society during individual hearings. These efforts will be advanced mainly at HGPI.
