当代公共卫生专业人员必须在预算有限和资金不断减少的情况下满足多样化人口的卫生需求。经济评估有助于以证据为基础的决策，帮助公共卫生界识别，测量和比较具有必要影响，可扩展性和可持续性的活动，以优化人口健康。问“公共卫生战略投资如何影响或抵消下游医疗和/或社会服务支出的需要？“在决定资源分配和扩大干预规模时很重要。
Contemporary public health professionals must address the health needs of a diverse population with constrained budgets and shrinking funds. Economic evaluation contributes to evidence-based decision making by helping the public health community identify, measure, and compare activities with the necessary impact, scalability, and sustainability to optimize population health. Asking "how do investments in public health strategies influence or offset the need for downstream spending on medical care and/or social services?" is important when making decisions about resource allocation and scaling of interventions.
