Abstract

Health production faces two forever growing challenges, the increasing demands on limited resources on one side and the increasing cost of healthcare on the other side. Effective and efficient health resources allocation is required for a safe and distributive health. Health economic analysis facilitates decision-making by offering a decision-making framework assessing which health intervention provides the maximum clinical benefits at an economic cost.
