Описание: PrefaceThe preface of the book will set the stage for the reader, while offering some context and direction for the book. It will discuss the general issues that are presented throughout the book, define key terms, and illustrate why and how the book is a useful resource for students, practitioners, and academic scholars who do or are interested in qualitative research. The preface will introduce the structure of the book and highlight key, pedagogical features utilised throughout. Chapter 1: Naturally occurring data in qualitative health research This chapter will open with a general introduction to qualitative health research and highlight some of the key debates about the value of qualitative work in the field of health. The main focus of this chapter will be to introduce the reader to key definitions around data sources/types and show what does and does not constitute naturally occurring data. Typically naturally occurring data is contrasted with researcher-generated data and the distinction will thus be clarified within this chapter, with multiple examples included throughout. Further, there are some key debates around data types in the research field, as well as some tensions, and thus these will be laid out in the chapter. Examples will be used throughout to help the reader in differentiating between the various types of data. Thus, the chapter will be structured broadly as follows:
Introduction to qualitative health research
Why health research needs process data
What is naturally occurring data?
What is researcher-generated data?
Pedagogical features In addition to the general pedagogical features included in all of the chapters, such as the 'notable point' boxes and the recommended reading lists, this chapter will have a small number of features designed to consolidate and challenge the reader's learning. For example, an activity designed to challenge their understanding of what naturally occurring data is will be featured, with examples of research that are and are not naturally occurring. The reader will be required to thus differentiate and thereby apply their knowledge. Chapter 2: Evidence-based practice and practice based evidence The use of naturally occurring data for research purposes fits more broadly with the issues of the use of qualitative research as evidence for practice, which is a central tenet of health research of any kind. For context, this chapter will introduce the reader to some of the general debates about evidence, and illustrate how qualitative evidence is beneficial, as well as how it is generally defined. Further, the chapter will focus on illuminating how naturally occurring data constitutes a form of evidence for the field of health. Thus the chapter will be structured broadly as follows:
What is evidence-based practice?
What is practice-based evidence?
What is the role of qualitative evidence and the evidence hierarchy?
How can examining practice naturally generate usable evidence?
Pedagogical features In addition to the general pedagogical features, such as the 'notable point' boxes and the recommended reading lists, this chapter will have a small number of features designed to consolidate and challenge the reader's learning. For example, this chapter will include an 'interview box' with a health researcher who uses naturally occurring data as 'qualitative evidence' and also has learned to navigate the challenges of positioning qualitative research as legitimate in relation to the evidence hierarchy. Chapter 3: Benefits and limitations of naturally occurring data

Описание: A COMPLETE UPDATE AND REVISION OF THE CLASSIC TEXTAt last, a manual of operations for comparing the cost-effectiveness of a preventive service with a treatment intervention. --American Journal of Preventive Medicine Twenty years after the first edition of COST-EFFECTIVENESS IN HEALTH AND MEDICINE established the practical benchmark for cost-effectiveness analysis, this completely revised edition of the classic text provides an essential resource to a new generation of practitioners, students, researchers, and policymakers. Produced by the Second Panel on Cost-Effectiveness in Health and Medicine--a team of 13 experts from fields including decision science, economics, ethics, psychology, and medicine--this new edition is a comprehensive guide to the use of cost-effectiveness analysis as an evaluative tool at the institutional and policy levels. As health care systems face increasing pressure to derive maximum value from expenditures, the guidelines in this new text represent not just the best information available, but a vital guide to health care decision-making in a challenging new era. Completely revised and enriched with examples and expanded coverage, this second edition of COST-EFFECTIVENESS IN HEALTH AND MEDICINE builds on its predecessor's excellence, offering required reading for both analysts and decision makers.

Описание: Operations research tools are ideally suited to providing solutions and insights for the many problems health policy-maker's face. Indeed, a growing body of literature on health policy analysis, based on operations research methods, has emerged to address the problems mentioned above and several others. The research in this field is often multi-disciplinary, being conducted by teams that include not only operations researchers but also clinicians, economists and policy analysts. The research is also often very applied, focusing on a specific question driven by a decision-maker and many times yielding a tool to assist in future decisions. The goal of this volume was to bring together a group of papers by leading experts that could showcase the current state of the field of operations research applied to health-care policy. There are 18 chapters that illustrate the breadth of this field. The chapters use a variety of techniques, including classical operations research tools, such as optimization, queuing theory, and discrete event simulation, as well as statistics, epidemic models and decision-analytic models. The book spans the field and includes work that ranges from highly conceptual to highly applied. An example of the former is the chapter by Kimmel and Schackman on building policy models, and an example of the latter is the chapter by Coyle and colleagues on developing a Markov model for use by an organization in Ontario that makes recommendations about the funding of new drugs. The book also includes a mix of review chapters, such as the chapter by Hutton on public health response to influenza outbreaks, and original research, such as the paper by Blake and colleagues analyzing a decision by Canadian Blood Services to consolidate services. This volume could provide an excellent introduction to the field of operations research applied to health-care policy, and it could also serve as an introduction to new areas for researchers already familiar with the topic. The book is divided into six sections. The first section contains two chapters that describe several different applications of operations research in health policy and provide an excellent overview of the field. Sections 2 to 4 present policy models in three focused areas. Section 5 contains two chapters on conceptualizing and building policy models. The book concludes in Section 6 with two chapters describing work that was done with policy-makers and presenting insights gained from working directly with policy-makers.
