Abstract:Cost-effectiveness analyses (CEA) typically involve comparing effectiveness and costs of one or more interventions compared to standard of care, to determine which intervention should be optimally implemented to maximise population health within the constraints of the healthcare budget. Traditionally, cost-effectiveness evaluations are expressed using incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICERs), which are compared with a fixed willingness-to-pay (WTP) threshold. Due to the existing uncertainty in costs for i… Show more
