A flexible formula for incorporating distributive concerns into cost-effectiveness analyses: Priority weights
Haaland, Øystein Ariansen; Lindemark, Frode; Johansson, Kjell Arne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-10-10)Background Cost effectiveness analyses (CEAs) are widely used to evaluate the opportunity cost of health care investments. However, few functions that take equity concerns into account are available for such CEA methods, ... -
Making use of equity sensitive QALYs: a case study on identifying the worse off across diseases
Lindemark, Frode; Norheim, Ole Frithjof; Johansson, Kjell Arne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-07-23)Background: Resource allocation decisions currently lack standard quantitative methods for incorporating concerns about the worse off when analysing the cost-effectiveness of medical interventions. Objective: To explore ... -
