UBC economists design and implement research and analyses that:
- Evaluate the cost-effectiveness of treatment
- Document economic advantage and value
- Quantify the burden of illness
Our scientists have expertise in economic modeling, cost-effectiveness studies, burden-of-illness studies, economic dossiers, clinical trial support and database analyses, health care data capture to support health economic evaluations, and health economics dissemination planning.
These studies are used to:
- Inform pricing and formulary inclusion decisions
- Examine bottom line effects on a plan’s budget and population health benefit
- Compare the value of your product to alternative strategies
- Estimate longer-term impact of therapy when only short-term data are available
- Support dossier submission to regulatory authorities
Dedicated to creating models following the highest scientific standards, UBC has frequently developed new analytic methods and novel techniques that address health care decisions that policy and clinical decision makers around the world face.
