Abstract:Cost analyses in medical education are rarely straightforward, and rarely lead to clear-cut conclusions. Occasionally they do lead to clear conclusions but even when that happens, some stakeholders will ask difficult but valid questions about what to do following cost analyses–specifically about distributive justice in the allocation of resources. At present there are few or no debates about these issues and rationing decisions that are taken in medical education are largely made subconsciously. Distributive j… Show more
“…There is a noted lack of methodological rigour and consistency in such analyses in health professions education.

Nestel and colleagues use Lin et al.'s analysis of economic evaluation in simulation‐based medical education to question the heterogeneity of ways in which “value” can be defined
