Course description

This course focuses on the role of modelling in developing health technologies for different markets and the practical skills used in this step of the health technology assessment process. It is taught online, part-time, so you can fit your studies around your other commitments

You will study common techniques for assessing the cost-effectiveness of health technologies, such as Markov models and individual-level simulation. You will put this knowledge into practice by building your own cost-effectiveness models. You will also explore different economic evaluation techniques, the process of developing decision-analytic models, and the role these tools play in health technology assessment.
