ArticlePublication 2016Cost-Effectiveness of Collaborative Care for Depression and Comorbid Diabetes or CVD
This article, published in BMJ Open, presents an economic model that combines a decision tree …
This article, published in BMJ Open, presents an economic model that combines a decision tree and a Markov cohort model to investigate the long-term cost-effectiveness of collaborative care versus usual care for individuals with depression and comorbid diabetes and/or cardiovascular disease. Data from the COINCIDE trial informs the model input parameters. The COINCIDE trial is a randomized controlled trial of collaborative care versus usual care that enrolled 387 participants from 36 primary care general practices…

ArticlePublication 2019Cost-Effectiveness of Community-Based Childhood Obesity Prevention Interventions in Australia
This study examined the cost-effectiveness of community-based obesity prevention interventions (CBIs) consisting of strategies to …
This study examined the cost-effectiveness of community-based obesity prevention interventions (CBIs) consisting of strategies to promote healthy eating and physical activity for Australian children aged between 5-18 years. A multiple cohort Markov model that simulates diseases associated with overweight and obesity was used to estimate the health benefits, measured as health-adjusted life years (HALYs) and healthcare-related cost offsets from diseases averted due to exposure to the intervention. Health and cost outcomes were estimated over the…

ArticlePublication 2017Modeled Health Benefits of a SSB Tax across Different Socioeconomic Groups in Australia
This analysis assessed the potential cost-effectiveness, health gains, and financial impacts of a 20% sugar-sweetened …
This analysis assessed the potential cost-effectiveness, health gains, and financial impacts of a 20% sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) tax for Australia. Australia-specific price elasticities were used to predict decreases in SSB consumption for each socio-economic quintile. Changes in body mass index (BMI) were based on SSB consumption, BMI from the Australian Health Survey, and energy balance equations. Markov cohort models were used to estimate the health-adjusted life years (HALYs) gained, healthcare costs saved, and out-of-pocket costs…

ArticlePublication 2011Cost-Effectiveness of Psychotherapy for Cluster C Personality Disorders
This article, published in the Journal of Clinical Psychiatry, describes a probabilistic Markov cohort model …
This article, published in the Journal of Clinical Psychiatry, describes a probabilistic Markov cohort model that compares the cost-effectiveness of five treatment modalities (long-term outpatient psychotherapy, short-term and long-term day hospital psychotherapy, and short-term and long-term inpatient psychotherapy) for patients with cluster C personality disorders. The analyses are conducted from the societal and payer perspectives. Patient-level data comes from 466 patients with cluster C personality disorders who were admitted to 6 specialist centers of psychotherapy…

ArticlePublication 2010Cost-Effectiveness of Psychotherapy for Cluster B Personality Disorders
This article, published in the British Journal of Psychiatry, presents a probabilistic Markov cohort model …
This article, published in the British Journal of Psychiatry, presents a probabilistic Markov cohort model that compares the cost-effectiveness of three treatment strategies (outpatient, day-hospital and inpatient psychotherapy) for patients with cluster B personality disorders. Patient-level data is used to populate the model and the analyses are conducted from the societal and payer perspectives. From the societal perspective, the findings show that the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) of day hospital psychotherapy compared to outpatient psychotherapy…

BookPublication 1980Clinical Decision Analysis
This text was conceived and developed in the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health …
This text was conceived and developed in the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health at the Center for the Analysis of Health Practices. The book had its origins in a set of classroom materials developed during the academic year 1974-75 for an elective course in medical decision making at the Harvard Medical School. In this book students are shown how to structure clinical decision problems, how to systematically formulate the intertwining roles of diagnosis and treatment, how to…
