What is the cost-effectiveness of person-centred care? Har passerat

Paneldeltagare: Benjamin Harvey, Hanna Gyllensten, Jana Bergholtz, Johan Jarl, Laura Pirhonen Nørmark, Salma Pardhan

Spår: Health economics

Issue: In the symposium we will focus on how to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of person-centred care (PCC). An ongoing systematic review explored the current evidence, and research groups from GPCC have conducted a sizeable proportion of all such studies. Although most studies have shown PCC to be cost-effective, we also identify several limitations in the current knowledge, potentially limiting its usefulness for decision-making. An example is the lack of process evaluations exploring studies where PCC interventions were found to be dominated by care as usual, and the lack of clarity on how the intervention differed from its comparator. Aim: That the audience become familiar with the current state of the evidence for cost-effectiveness of PCC and can assess the role for future such economic evaluations in decision-making. The discussion will explore opportunities and pitfalls in conducting such studies. Outline: Short introduction to priorities in healthcare and the role of health economics in decision-making. A 5-minute presentations from each participant will be followed by a moderator-led discussion about how to develop future high quality economic evaluations of PCC. This will explore the most pressing issues for decision-makers, where the audience will have the opportunity to pose questions.   Participants: Moderator and patient-representative: JB. SP: set the GPCC literature in perspective to the international literature. LP: presenting the evidence from the early GPCC-projects single study economic evaluations. HG: presenting the evidence from studies exploring implementation cost for PCC. BH: presenting an overview of (core) outcomes for economic evaluation of PCC. JJ: provide perspective on economic evaluations of healthcare programmes and health economics. Materials: Audience should bring phones or laptops to be able to post questions to the moderator.

She is leading one of the three focus areas within GPCC; directed towards development, adaptation and evaluation of person-centred care. In that role she is responsible for on one of the centers strategic initiatives towards governance for person-centred care, and leads the research group examining health economic aspects of person-centred care.

Research
Hannas research focuses on health economic aspects of, in particular, chronic diseases. Examples are economic evaluations of person-centred interventions in healthcare, based on data collected within clinical trials and complemented by data from national and regional registers. Her other research projects include mainly (register-based) observational research. The studies uses national registers, sometimes complemented by data from population survey or collected from medical records, to study e.g., societal costs resulting from disease.
