Faced with rising health care costs, decision makers (government, administrators and health care professionals) grapple with the challenge of ensuring quality care while getting the best value from every health care dollar. What is the role of health economics in balancing health care costs and access to care? What is the impact of ignoring costs? How do decision makers use economic information? Are there shortcomings to current accepted practices? Are there better ways to develop and use economic information?
Join Dr. Karl Claxton, Dr. Murray Krahn, and Dr. Robert Peterson for a thought provoking session on the value and reality behind the use of economic information in decision making.
