Course overview
This course covers the full range of model types that are appropriate for use in Health Economic analysis (such as Markov models, transmission dynamic models and Bayesian approaches to modelling).
An understanding of the uses and limitations of modelling is an essential part of the toolkit of any Health Economist who is involved with Economic Evaluation, either as an analyst or a receiver/user of economic analysis.
This course goes beyond the introductory sessions in the Introduction to Health Economics module and covers the model types that are used in Health Economic analysis.
This course is taken directly from the Health Economics and Health Policy Postgraduate Degree Programme.
