This study addresses the limitations of conventional static approaches in health economic modeling by proposing a dynamic general population mortality modeling method. Using a replication of the axicabtagene ciloleucel model from NICE appraisal TA559, the authors demonstrate the potential impact of this approach on estimating life-years and cost-effectiveness. The model utilizes national mortality projections and updates mortality rates annually, considering different assumptions around age distribution. Results show that incorporating dynamic calculations increases undiscounted life-years attributed…

BriefPublication 2023Simulation Modeling to Guide Priority Setting in Global Maternal Health
This study developed the Global Maternal Health (GMatH) microsimulation model to evaluate maternal health policy …
This study developed the Global Maternal Health (GMatH) microsimulation model to evaluate maternal health policy interventions across 200 countries and territories from 1990 to 2050. It addresses challenges in measuring maternal mortality by simulating individual women's reproductive lifecycles. Various interventions, including family planning and facility-based care, were simulated to compare against a baseline scenario projecting the global maternal mortality ratio (MMR) to decrease to 167 per 100,000 live births by 2030. Results suggest that while…
