This article provides a series of consensus-based best practices regarding the process of model conceptualization, specifically when models are used to inform medical decisions and health-related resource allocation. The authors divide the conceptualization process into two distinct components: the conceptualization of the problem, which converts knowledge of the health care process or decision into a representation of the problem, followed by the conceptualization of the model itself, which matches the attributes and characteristics of a…
