DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Annual Health Econometrics Workshop (AHEW), www.healtheconometrics.org, provides a forum to discuss the use of econometric and other quantitative methods to address issues in health economics and policy, health services research, and outcomes research. The meeting is the only one of its kind in North America and facilitates the exchange of ideas among the growing number of health econometricians around the world. It allows for considerable exchange of ideas between junior and senior investigators in ways that no other health economics or econometrics workshop in the US does. AHEW was inaugurated in 2009. The 2012 & 2013 workshop was funded by an R13 grant from AHRQ 2013 (5R13HS021019) that provided the much needed support to establish this workshop as a premier meeting in the world. We have seen record increases in paper submissions in last consecutive years. We are seeking renewal of our current R13 grant for the years 2014, 2015 and 2016. The venue for the 2014 workshop is tentatively planned at the University of Wisconsin- Madison. Venues for 2015 - 2016 are not yet finalized. However, we have received overwhelming responses from researchers across the country offering to host these workshops. We seek funds to enable us to continue to build a strong workshop over the next three years and expand upon the scientific program in order to maximize participation and interaction, scientific content, and dissemination and training efforts.

描述（由申请人提供）：年度卫生计量经济学研讨会（AHEW）， www.healtheconometrics.org，提供了一个论坛，讨论使用计量经济学和其他定量方法来解决卫生经济学和政策，卫生服务研究和结果研究中的问题。该会议是北美唯一的此类会议，促进了世界各地越来越多的卫生计量经济学家之间的思想交流。它允许初级和高级研究人员之间进行大量的思想交流，这是美国其他卫生经济学或计量经济学研讨会所没有的。AHEW成立于2009年。2012年和2013年的研讨会由AHRQ 2013 （5R13HS021019）的R13拨款资助，该拨款提供了急需的支持，使该研讨会成为世界上首屈一指的会议。在过去的几年里，我们看到提交的论文数量连续增加。我们正在寻求2014年、2015年和2016年R13拨款的续期。2014年研讨会的地点暂定在威斯康辛大学麦迪逊分校。2015 - 2016年的比赛场地尚未最终确定。然而，我们收到了来自全国各地的研究人员的压倒性回应，他们愿意主办这些研讨会。我们寻求资金，使我们能够在未来三年内继续建立一个强大的研讨会，并扩大科学计划，以最大限度地提高参与和互动、科学内容、传播和培训工作。
