Individual decision making, welfare measurement and policy evaluation in the health sector: a microeconometric approach

这一研究计划将促进经济学和卫生经济学的国际发展。它提供了一个令人兴奋的机会，汇集了国际上该学科前沿的经济学学者，他们是在研究成果的实际应用中形成政策方向的丰富经验的研究人员。该方法将填补澳大利亚在系统一级与政策相关的卫生服务研究中反复发现的空白。研究方案的直接成果将是关于具体卫生政策问题的信息，涉及成本和利用的驱动因素、获取和公平。

This proposed program of research will contribute to the development of economics and health economics internationally. It provides an exciting opportunity to bring together scholars across economics at the forefront of the discipline internationally, who are researchers with extensive experience in the practical application of research results in shaping policy directions. The approach will fill the repeatedly identified gap in policy relevant health services research at the system level in Australia. The immediate outcomes of the research program will be information on specific health policy issues, in terms of the drivers of cost and utilization, access and equity.
