Tutorial/PrimerPublication, Teaching Resource 2016Cost per DALY Thresholds and Health Opportunity Costs
This policy brief aims to explain the cost per DALY threshold and the concepts of …
This policy brief aims to explain the cost per DALY threshold and the concepts of health opportunity costs, especially aimed at low and middle-income countries. The authors state that an assessment of health opportunity costs is required if the best use is to be made of health and healthcare resources. This requires an assessment of whether the improvement in health outcomes they offer exceeds the improvement in health that would have been possible if the…

Tutorial/PrimerPublication, Teaching Resource 2016Extended Cost-Effectiveness Analysis for Health Policy Assessment: A Tutorial
This tutorial describes both the intent of extended cost-effectiveness analysis and its keys to allow …
This tutorial describes both the intent of extended cost-effectiveness analysis and its keys to allow easy implementation for health policy assessment. Extended cost-effectiveness analysis was developed to address health policy assessment, specifically to evaluate the health and financial consequences of public policies in four domains: (1) the health gains; (2) the financial risk protection benefits; (3) the total costs to the policy makers; and (4) the distributional benefits.

Tutorial/PrimerPublication, Teaching Resource 2016Distributional Cost-Effectiveness Analysis: A Tutorial
This tutorial explains distributional cost-effectiveness analysis as a framework for incorporating health inequality concerns into …
This tutorial explains distributional cost-effectiveness analysis as a framework for incorporating health inequality concerns into the economic evaluation of health sector interventions. Using an illustrative example comparing alternative ways of implementing the National Health Service (NHS) Bowel Cancer Screening Programme the authors describe the technical details of how to conduct distributional cost-effectiveness analysis. The 2 key stages are 1) modeling social distributions of health associated with different interventions, and 2) evaluating social distributions of health…

The aim of cost-utility analysis is to support decision making in healthcare by providing a …
The aim of cost-utility analysis is to support decision making in healthcare by providing a standardized mechanism for comparing resource use and health outcomes across programmes of work. The focus of this review is the denominator of the cost-utility analysis, specifically the methodology and statistical challenges associated with calculating QALYs from patient-level data collected as part of a trial. The authors provide a brief description of the most common questionnaire used to calculate patient level…
