Evidence OSMedical evidence & research
Hospitals & departments

Before a department meeting, pathway pilot or review response, make the evidence and unresolved questions clear.

Choose a pathway topic, ongoing department maintenance or a batch of review questions. Each shows an illustrative deliverable, material limits, review roles and acceptance criteria. Prices are pilot references; formal scope, personnel and contracts require separate confirmation.

Choose the deliverable you need

Inspect the value and deliverables, then agree scope, review and fees.

01 · DEDICATED

Department evidence project

A pathway or review question lacks a shared evidence base.

Core valueGive a department a shared basis for pathway or review questions.
What you receiveMatch the pathway and local conditions to evidence for team review.
  • Pathway-to-evidence table
  • Local applicability and information gaps
  • Evaluation measures or item-by-item review

Topic report and tables; name the department owner and reviewers.

How fees workPathway project: CNY 30,000–80,000 reference; review batch: CNY 10,000–50,000

Fixed quote by department, topic or question batch and review depth; staged payments.

Scope limits

Excludes implementation, recruitment and system integration.

02 · CUSTOM

Department evidence maintenance

Team members update at different times and materials become stale.

Core valueHand evidence changes to the whole department through a shared baseline.
What you receiveMaintain shared questions and hand material changes to the team.
  • Shared question register and evidence baseline
  • Incremental briefs and periodic change summaries
  • Review, handover and work-hour register

Accept by agreed cadence, question volume and hours; confirm maintenance scope.

How fees workReference: CNY 60,000–180,000 per department per year

Confirm baseline work; contract annual questions, input limits and support hours, payable quarterly.

Scope limits

Excludes hospital-wide deployment, unlimited questions and on-call coverage.

Amounts are proposed references or examples. Formal quotes depend on inputs, questions, professional review and acceptance scope. Agree updates separately; the same work is not charged twice.

More situations and delivery examples
CNY 30,000–80,000 per project

Assess a clinical pathway

A meeting will decide whether to change a process, but current practice and research evidence are not yet aligned.

You will receive

A process-to-evidence table, relevant populations and conditions, local-data gaps and proposed pilot measures, helping the department decide whether to evaluate further.

Explore the scope

Define one department and one process question, compare external research with local conditions, then specify what a pilot would need to measure. Pilot reference: CNY 30,000–80,000 per topic. Pathway implementation, patient recruitment and research data collection are excluded.

CNY 60,000–180,000 per department per year

Maintain your team’s evidence base

Every discussion starts with another search, and new colleagues cannot find the evidence behind earlier decisions.

You will receive

A versioned shared question collection, monthly change briefs, quarterly summaries and a professional-time log. Scans finding no new evidence are recorded accurately.

Explore the scope

Maintain sources and versions for fixed questions, explain changes monthly, and check outputs and support hours quarterly. Annual department pilot reference: CNY 60,000–180,000. Agree question counts, authorized users, full-text limits and professional-support scope first.

See case, chart & deliverables
CNY 10,000–50,000 per batch

Respond to review queries item by item

A response deadline is approaching, but original records, contemporaneous clinical evidence and payment conditions are not yet linked to each query.

You will receive

An explanation table under the original query IDs, record and source locations, missing items and internal-review questions. The organization determines its response through its own processes.

Explore the scope

For one care topic and a defined review batch, check medical necessity, regional payment conditions at the time and missing records separately. Pilot reference: CNY 10,000–50,000 per batch. Formal disputes, legal services and third-party work require a separate scope.

THE BASIS FOR THIS SCOPE

Why this approach? Inspect the basis.

Institutional decisions require effect evidence, resources, implementation conditions and local applicability.

OFFICIAL GUIDANCE

WHO Guidelines

World Health Organization

Inspect public-health and clinical guidance

Find WHO guidelines and review the recommendation questions, evidence base and intended settings.

Scope & access conditions

Global guidance is not evidence of local implementation outcomes. Check population, resources, policy and timing.

PUBLIC DATABASE

Cochrane

Cochrane

Read systematic reviews and plain-language summaries

Explore a question’s research synthesis and the confidence researchers have in the findings.

Scope & access conditions

Plain-language summaries are public; full-review access varies. Applicability still depends on the population and question.

METHOD REFERENCE

GRADE · Cochrane Handbook

Cochrane · Chapter 14

Show effect size and confidence separately

Present important outcomes, relative and absolute effects, available data and certainty, with reasons for downgrading.

Scope & access conditions

GRADE evaluates a body of evidence for a particular outcome. Database inclusion or one study does not automatically establish high certainty.

Open official source

These references support problem definition and evidence appraisal. Your conclusions still require project-specific sources and professional review.
