Health Economics Seminar
Host: Institute of Population Health, Centre for Health Economics
About the event:
This workshop will discuss arrange of issues in economics which may be encountered by researchers working in evidence synthesis but who are not themselves economists. Multi-morbidity is a particularly topical issue with a growing awareness among both health care practitioners and policy makers that most patients will have more than one concurrent condition that requires management. The workshop will provide the opportunity to discuss issues and seek advice and support from fellow systematic reviewers working with economic evidence.
