Applied Health Economic Evaluation Research Project is designed to provide students with the opportunity to apply the components of health economic evaluation in full, from specification of a research question to the drafting of a journal manuscript. The course builds on the Health Economic Evaluation and Decision Making (PUB HLTH 7082) in particular, but also prior courses in health economics, HTA, epidemiology and biostatistics which combine to cover the key components of a health economic evaluation. Students are provided with relevant materials and instruction relating to the review of background material, the specification of an appropriate model structure, estimation of disease progression and treatment effect parameter values, conduct of a quality of life study, analysis of resource use and cost data, consideration of outcomes other than quality adjusted life years, and the analysis and representation of uncertainty of the finished model. On course completion, students will have practical experience in the conduct of health economic evaluation which will cement the knowledge gained across prior completed units and provide the basis for conducting independent evaluations in a wide range of employment settings (e.g. government, NGO, industry, academia). |
