Abstract

Once the framework and design of a cost-effectiveness analysis have been conceptualized, the next step is to develop estimates of the numerator and denominator of the cost-effectiveness ratio. Estimation of the numerator is discussed in Chapter 6. In this chapter and in Chapter 5 we discuss issues pertaining to the denominator term, which is the difference in effectiveness between an intervention and the alternatives to which it is compared. The panel’s recommended approach to estimating the denominator is to use a system of generic health states and values to describe and measure the outcomes.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
