Decision Modelling for Healthcare Evaluation: 2nd Edition

Dear Colleagues,

At present, the economic climate has meant that health economic modelling is increasingly used to inform the decisions of health care systems about which health care interventions to finance from accessible funds. The study of health decision modelling is rapidly growing because governments, insurers, healthcare organisations and the pharmaceutical industry recognise the need to estimate the costs, clinical outcomes and benefits of healthcare systems. These developments have increased due to the important changes in clinical decision-making processes that have been carried out in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

This Special Issue aims to bring together state-of-the-art research and practical applications carried out on clinical decision-making processes or on Decision Modelling for Healthcare Evaluation.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

• Decision analytic models for healthcare evaluation;
• Decision probabilistic models for healthcare evaluation;
• Analysing and presenting simulation output from decision modelling for healthcare evaluation;
• Decision modelling for healthcare under uncertainty;
• Technology and decision modelling for healthcare;
• Other related topics.
