Economic evaluation

Fox-Rushby, Julia A. (Added Author). Cairns, John. (Added Author).

Summary: There are so many ways in which health might be improved today and, as technology improves, the opportunities will increase. However, there are limits to budgets as well as other resources so choices have to be made about what to spend money and time on. Economic evaluation can help set out the value of the costs and benefits from competing choices.
