Abstract
The main purpose of healthcare is to provide value for patients. The conceptual framework known as value-based healthcare (VBHC) developed by Porter and Teisberg1 is interesting to apply to psoriasis as it is a common ‘posterchild’ chronic skin disease with high prevalence affecting approximately 2%–3% of the Western population. It is associated with psoriatic arthritis and numerous other comorbidities and it significantly impacts patients' quality of life.
