PRIORITY SETTING AND DECISION MAKING IN HEALTH CARE

The strained health care budgets and overstressed health systems have recently recognized the need for formalization of the priority setting processes worldwide. Currently, notions of cost-effectiveness take center stage in most systems with limited discussion for other aspects of decision making. The study "Priority Setting in health care" collected data on decision-makers' preferences for a set of equity and efficiency criteria in a discrete choice experiment in 16 countries. The survey enables us to explore the preferences of decision makers for different equity and efficiency attributes describing health care interventions and to rank interventions given these preferences. The workshop is going to discuss the most important results of the research project.
