Description
This project will contribute to the evidence base on cost-effectiveness analysis in maternal health care. It will involve identifying standardised inputs for cost-effectiveness models, and assessing the quality of cost and quality of life measures in this space. A cost-effectiveness model for use in maternal health care will be developed, and a number of interventions tested for cost-effectiveness.
This project would suit a candidate with existing knowledge of health economics (for example through Masters-level health economic studies), with an interest in cost-effectiveness analyses.
