The Expert Panel on effective ways of investing in health was an interdisciplinary and independent group established by the European Commission in 2012 to provide non-binding independent advice on matters related to effective, accessible and resilient health systems.
The Expert Panel aimed to support DG Health and Food Safety in its efforts towards evidence-based policy-making, to inform national policy making in improving the quality and sustainability of health systems and to foster EU level cooperation to improve information, expertise and the exchange of best practices. The mandate expired in December 2022.

Evaluation of the work of the Expert Panel
As the mandate of the Expert Panel and the applicability of the Commission Decision 2019/C 174/04 amending Decision 2012/C 198/06 on setting up a multisectoral and independent expert panel was coming to an end in 2022, DG SANTE commissioned an evaluation of the Expert Panel work. It was conducted by an external consultant, ICF during 2022, but covered the period from 2013 to 2022.
