The "International Conference on Health Policy Research (ICHPR): Methodological Issues in Health Services and Outcomes Research," is a scientific conference that focuses on the interface between research methodology and health policy. Its specific aim is to create an interface for methodologists and sophisticated health service researchers to exchange and build upon ideas, discuss research needs, and develop solutions to methodological challenges. The conference is sponsored by the Health Policy Statistics Section (HPSS) of the American Statistical Association. Technical areas featured in the Invited program include hierarchical models, imputation strategies, risk adjustment for skewed data, casual inference with longitudinal data, techniques for inferring disparities, development of population needs-based funding models, instrumental-variable and propensity-score techniques, and combining multiple data sources. Techniques will be illustrated across a variety of substantive areas, including drug monitoring, predicting high-cost users, anthrax vaccine effectiveness, racial disparities, mental illness, cardiovascular disease, arthritis, and cancer. Databases featured in presentations will include the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS), the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS), the Medicare Current Beneficiary Survey, and the HCAHPS hospital satisfaction survey. Funding will be used to help offset some of the conference costs and reduce the financial barrier to facilitate broader participation in the conference.

“卫生政策研究国际会议（ICHPR）：卫生服务和成果研究中的方法问题”是一个科学会议，重点关注研究方法和卫生政策之间的接口。其具体目标是为方法学家和成熟的卫生服务研究人员创建一个界面，以交流和建立思想，讨论研究需求，并为方法挑战制定解决方案。本次会议由美国统计协会卫生政策统计科（HPSS）主办。特邀项目的技术领域包括层次模型、归算策略、倾斜数据的风险调整、纵向数据的随机推断、推断差异的技术、基于人口需求的融资模型的开发、工具变量和倾向得分技术，以及多种数据源的结合。技术将在各种实质性领域进行说明，包括药物监测、预测高成本使用者、炭疽疫苗有效性、种族差异、精神疾病、心血管疾病、关节炎和癌症。报告中介绍的数据库将包括医疗支出小组调查（MEPS）、全国健康访谈调查（NHIS）、医疗保险当前受益人调查和HCAHPS医院满意度调查。这笔资金将用于帮助抵消会议的一些费用和减少财政障碍，以促进更广泛地参加会议。
