"Linking the care that people get to the outcomes they experience is key"

Pharmacoeconomics is an area that is increasing importance every year. Capped health budgets and rising drug costs have led to the high level of interest in the use of economic analysis for decisions about the purchase and subsidisation of new pharmaceutical products. The key point is to establish the relationship between any improved health outcomes with new drugs (compared with established treatments) to the net costs associated with their use.

Health economics is crucial in a world with an ageing population and an ever higher strain on health budgets. Pharmaceutical and biotech companies must be able to measure and prove the value of their products in more sophisticated ways and they must account for many different things. In recent years the burden of proof has fallen squarely on the shoulders of industry and this is unlikely to change. Therefore advancements in pharmacoeconomics and greater understanding of health outcomes and the broader context of health economics is essential.

Visiongain's Health Economics and Outcomes Research 2009 provides the ideal forum for industry decision-makers, pharmacoeconomic analysts and academics alike to  keep up with the latest developments in thinking and practice.
