我们认为,传统的卫生经济学分析是不具备估计的成本效益和成本效益的干预措施,旨在控制和/或预防国际关注的突发公共卫生事件(如大流行性流感或严重急性呼吸系统综合征)。这种紧急情况将违反卫生部门本身和整个经济(如果采用更广泛的视角)内部部分平衡的隐含假设。我们提出了一个替代方案,具体目的是考虑到当这种爆发发生时预计会发生的行为变化和能力问题。版权所有(C)2008约翰威利父子有限公司
We argue that traditional health economic analysis is ill-equipped to estimate the cost effectiveness and cost benefit of interventions that aim at controlling and/or preventing public health emergencies of international concern (such as pandemic influenza or severe acute respiratory syndrome). The implicit assumption of partial equilibrium within both the health sector itself and - if it wider perspective is adopted - the economy its a whole would be violated by Such emergencies. We propose an alternative, with the specific aim of accounting for the behavioural changes and capacity problems that are expected to occur when Such an Outbreak strikes.
