“Inscripción curso: Construcción e interpretación de modelos de evaluación económica”

Los modelos constituyen la mejor manera posible de acercarse a describir matemáticamente una realidad. En el marco de la evaluación de tecnologías en salud, las evaluaciones económicas requieren recrear, mediante modelos matemáticos, el curso natural de la enfermedad y las intervenciones mediante tecnologías en salud. Durante el curso presentaron los modelos de evaluación económicas en salud utilizados con más frecuencia, con un enfoque pragmático, esto es, acercándose al hacer más que a la teoría, en diferentes niveles de complejidad (trabajo en grupos paralelos según el nivel de conocimiento de cada asistente). Literalmente, desde Dummies hasta Rocket Science.
