Course Description: This one-day
short course is designed to teach clinicians and new researchers how to
incorporate pharmacoeconomic evaluations into study design and data
analysis. Participants will learn how to collect and calculate the costs
and outcomes of different alternatives, and determine the economic impact
of clinical outcomes. The development of prospective and retrospective
economic protocols and data collection sheets will be discussed.
Different modeling techniques will be demonstrated and practiced in case
studies. Timing of pharmacoeconomic evaluations in the drug development
process will thereby receive special attention. Guidelines for optimal
conduct of these studies will be demonstrated and their practical
application will be discussed. Finally, from the decision maker’s
viewpoint, the way pharmacoeconomic evaluations can be used in health
care policy is demonstrated with real cases. This course is suitable for
those with little or some experience in the design, collection and
analysis of pharmacoeconomic data. |
