| Abstract | Economic evaluation of healthcare interventions is a useful tool in resource allocation planning. It can enumerate the potential costs and value the anticipated consequences of alternative programs, and analyze risks and uncertainties for their successful outcomes. In this module, four different types of economic evaluation are presented: cost-minimization analysis, cost-effectiveness analysis, cost-utility analysis, and cost-benefit analysis. | |
