The EPOC Norwegian satellite based at the Norwegian Institute of Public Health recently hosted two review authors from China. Beibei Yuan and Liying Jia have been at the satellite office in Oslo, Norway working on the high priority review “Payment methods for outpatient health professionals”. They have received methodological and statistical support as well as help with search strategies for identifying studies for inclusion in their review. They expect to publish their review by mid-2019. Their visit to the satellite was possible due to funding from the Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation (Norad) which provides travel stipends to review authors in LMICs that are working on high priority EPOC reviews.
