Abstract
The aim of the present study was to develop recommendations for a core curriculum for master's degree programs in health services research. For this purpose, a standardized online survey of university lecturers was conducted in the first step. In the second step, the curricula of the existing study programs were analyzed. In the third step, a literature search was conducted. In the last step, the resulting recommendations were discussed in a panel of experts. The final recommendations comprise 13 topics on five guiding questions with 26 subtopics. The main topics come from the areas of basic sciences in the context of health services research, the health care system and health policy, the (empirical) health services research process, and knowledge transfer. The present recommendations will serve as a basis for discussion and as a starting point. The development of recommendations should be seen as an ongoing process, as the core competencies of health services researchers will have to be continuously adapted to new research topics, new research methods and regulations.
