HEALTH ECONOMICS COURSE

Center for Health Technology Assessment,
SEMMELWEIS UNIVERSITY, Budapest
COURSE DATE: 17-20 February 2025, 9 AM-4 PM
Applied health economics: Evidence-based pharmaceutical policy decision-making in lower-income European countries
For Whom?
For representatives of health care payers, HTA agencies, academic research teams and market access teams of the pharmaceutical industry or consultant companies who are involved or interested in-, or influenced by evidence-based policy decisions in countries with economic constraints.
Why?
Evidence-based decision-making is especially important in less affluent countries with more limited health care resources and generally poorer overall health status, as the opportunity cost of suboptimal pharmaceutical policy decisions is higher in these countries.
Brief description
The course – in parallel with providing basic insights into the theory of economic evaluation, modeling, managed entry agreements and multi criteria decision analysis (MCDA) – will primarily be based on case studies. Participants will develop an economic model and use it for designing managed entry agreement scenarios and understanding their influence on the cost-effectiveness and the budget impact of pharmaceuticals at their market entry. As the traditional economic value frameworks may be too narrow to capture patient-centric and societal value elements, participants will develop an extended value framework and evaluate policy scenarios by MCDA.
Participation will be face-to-face (seating is limited).
