Dear EUPHA-ECO section members.
The EUPHA Public Health Economics section in partnership with the OECD Secretariat is pleased to invite you to attend a virtual seminar on modelling healthcare expenditure by disease in OECD countries. The agenda of the event can be found in the following .
During the virtual seminar, we will discuss two recent works on attributing healthcare expenditures to diseases. A specific focus of the discussion will be on the methodological challenges and the policy implications of such cost-of-illness analyses for OECD countries. The University of Melbourne will present a country-level model that has been used in a simulation study achieving SDG 3.4. The OECD Secretariat will outline an AI-based model relying on patient-level data that is used in the OECD microsimulation model for Strategic Public Health Planning for non-communicable diseases (SPHeP-NCD) to assess the cost-effectiveness of prevention interventions. The Secretariats will also discuss the benefits of this project to policymakers and information on how countries can get involved.
Attendees will have the opportunity to discuss both methodologies and real-world applications and exchange views with academics part of the EUPHA.
Practical details regarding the seminar and information on how to register are summarised below.
