PATIENTS AS INDEPENDANT STAKEHOLDERS



SO - WHO ARE THE STAKEHOLDERS IN MELANOMA TREATMENT/TRIALS ?

What is a stakeholder ? 

A group of people with shared interests that are different from other groups


Clearly the most important stakeholders are those who commit their lives : 


THE PATIENTS


Then we have : CARERS and  FAMILIES  

also GOVERNMENTS who bear the costs of healthcare

then we have CLINICIANS and RESEARCHERS who do the work

we have the PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES who fund development

we have HEALTH TECHNOLOGY ASSESSORS who decide on the risks/benefits

we have THE PUBLIC
