| Title |
Winter School: Introduction to the Economic Evaluation of Healthcare Interventions |
| Description |
Economic evaluations of healthcare interventions are essential tools for informing reimbursement decisions, healthcare policy and treatment guidelines. The goal of economic evaluations is to measure and compare costs and health effects of alternative uses of limited resources to support reimbursement and policy decisions.
This course aims to give an introduction into the basic concepts of economic evaluation with a focus on cost-effectiveness analysis. We will introduce the key principles and results of cost-effectiveness analysis and show how such evidence can be used in funding decisions. The course will cover important methodological aspects of the design and implementation of cost-effectiveness studies with a strong focus on model-based cost-effectiveness analysis. The theoretical concepts will be applied in practical tutorials in R.
Participants do not need prior experience in economic evaluation or clinical research, but a solid understanding of basic statistical concepts and general methods for the clinical evaluation of health care interventions is expected. The practical sessions require previous experience with R. |
