This interactive league table contains more than 800 Australian and New Zealand evaluations of public health intervention impacts on health gains (in quality/disability/health adjusted life years), health system costs and cost effectiveness. It allows users (policy-makers, researchers, health professionals, general public) to compare the health gains and costs associated with different interventions. The web portal provides access to a Users Guide and a Plain Language Summary of how to interpret table and graph outputs. Read the research…

The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, founded in 1863, has a mission to provide nonpartisan, objective guidance for decision makers on policy challenges in the context of science, engineering, and medicine. NAS reports and convening activities have a wide range of impacts on policy and practice. They guide the development of federal laws and regulations, improve the effectiveness of government programs, shape the direction of research fields, and inform public knowledge and dialogue about…

In this teaching pack on Using Test Information I, students review the performance of a …
In this teaching pack on Using Test Information I, students review the performance of a dichotomous test and the relationship between sensitivity and specificity, calculate likelihood ratios to describe test performance, and conduct probability revision using the odds-LR form of Bayes. Materials include an instructor's note, videos, companion slides, a glossary, an annotated bibliography, and sample exercises. Learning Objectives Calculate four conditional probabilities describing the performance of a dichotomous test, and explain the…

In this teaching pack on Using Test Information II, students are introduced to tests with continuous or categorical results, and calculate the sensitivity and specificity conditional on different 'cutoff points' or 'positivity criterion'. They are introduced to ROC curves and explore the implications of operating at different parts of the curve for any single test. They calculate the optimal positivity criterion given information on the prior, the test performance, and the relative consequences of true…

In this teaching pack on Economic Evaluation: Cost-Effectiveness Analysis I, students are introduced to economic evaluation …
In this teaching pack on Economic Evaluation: Cost-Effectiveness Analysis I, students are introduced to economic evaluation as it relates to public health and learn to distinguish between cost-effectiveness and benefit-cost analyses. They learn the concepts of opportunity cost, incremental cost-effectiveness analysis and incremental cost-effectiveness ratios. Finally, students are shown the steps used to conduct a shopping spree cost-effectiveness analysis designed to maximize health under a budget constraint. Materials include an instructor's note, videos, companion slides, a…

In this teaching pack on Economic Evaluation: Cost-Effectiveness Analysis II, students are introduced to the concepts of the ‘competing choice’ analysis where the choice is between mutually exclusive options and how to recognize strong and weak dominance. Additionally, students learn to plot the results of the competing choice analysis, including how to display dominated options, and finally, students are shown how to structure, conduct and interpret results of a cost-effectiveness analysis that combines the ‘shopping…

In this teaching pack on Economic Evaluation: Cost-Effectiveness Analysis III, students are introduced to the different types of costs that are included in a cost-effectiveness analysis and learn how the perspective of the analysis helps to determine which costs would be included. Additionally, students learn the three basic steps to costing, identifying costs, measuring costs, and valuing costs, and become familiar with the recommendations of both the original and the more recent Panel on Cost-Effectiveness…
