They offer the scope to control for individual heterogeneity and to model the dynamics of individual behaviour. However the measures of outcome used in health economics are often qualitative or categorical. These create special problems for estimating econometric models. The dramatic growth in computing power over recent years has been accompanied by the development of methods that help to solve these problems. This book provides a practical guide to the skills required to put these techniques into practice.
This book illustrates practical applications of these methods using data on health from, among others, the British Health and Lifestyle Survey (HALS), the British Household Panel Survey (BHPS), the European Community Household Panel (ECHP) and the WHO Multi-Country Survey (WHO-MCS). Assuming a familiarity with the basic syntax and structure of Stata, this book presents and explains the statistical output using empirical case studies rather than general theory.
Never before has a health economics text brought theory and practice together and this book will be of great benefit to applied economists, as well as advanced undergraduate and post graduate students in health economics and applied econometrics.Contents note: Introduction -- Part 1: Data Description -- 1.

METHODS: Quality indicators were identified from a systematic literature search and the 2010 Belgian evidence-based clinical practice guideline. The selection process involved an expert panel evaluating reliability, relevance, interpretability and actionability of each indicator. The quality indicators were tested using the Belgian Cancer Registry data linked with claims data for all women registered with breast cancer in Belgium between 2001 and 2006 (n=50,039). RESULTS: The selection process led to a final set of 32 indicators. Of these, 12 were measurable using the available data, while 1 indicator was measurable using proxy information. Five-year relative survival was 98%, 87%, 68% and 29% for pStage I, II, III and cStage IV respectively. Overall 5-year survival slightly improved for pStage II, III and cStage IV between 2001 and 2004. Of the surgically treated women, 60% underwent breast conserving surgery, 85% received adjuvant systemic treatment and 86% were irradiated postoperatively. In 80% of women treated for breast cancer, at least one mammography was performed within one year after the last treatment. CONCLUSION: The present study demonstrates the feasibility to develop a multidisciplinary set of quality indicators for breast cancer. Using national cancer registry data linked to claims data, 13 indicators were measurable, showing results that largely correspond to other studies in the field.

La loi dite « de droit à l’oubli » permet de faciliter l’accès à ces assurances après un certain délai (généralement de 10 ans pour les cancers), et à certaines conditions. Deux listes mentionnant les maladies concernées ont été établies dans ce cadre. Afin de tenir compte de l’évolution des progrès de la médecine, ces listes, ou « grilles de référence » doivent être régulièrement réévaluées. Le Centre Fédéral d’Expertise des Soins de santé (KCE) a été chargé de cette réévaluation. Son premier exercice porte sur le cancer du sein aux stades précoces. Sur la base d’une analyse minutieuse des courbes de survie de ce type de cancer, les chercheurs du KCE ont émis des propositions de raccourcissement du délai d’attente qui concerneraient potentiellement environ une femme sur deux atteintes d’un cancer du sein.

In this study, it was examined whether physicians and nurses have accurate perceptions of health status after renal transplantation (RTX) and whether renal transplant candidates have realistic expectations about posttransplant quality of life.
METHODS: A comparative descriptive design was used for the comparison of physicians' and nurses' perceived and patients' expected and actual health status after RTX. Health status perceptions were measured by means of the EQ-5D self-report questionnaire. RTX candidates (n=107) were followed longitudinally from November 1999 until July 2001. Transplant patients (n=29) were surveyed 14 days and 4, 8, and 12 months after discharge from hospital. All physicians and nurses (n=123) had regular contact with dialysis or RTX patients.
RESULTS: Physicians' and nurses' perceptions of health status after RTX were significantly lower than patients' expectations. Transplant nurses' and physicians' valuations were closer to patients' actual health status after transplantation than valuations of nurses on the dialysis or nephrology ward or at the outpatient clinic.
CONCLUSIONS: RTX candidates frequently have higher expectations about their quality of life after transplantation than physicians and nurses who have regular contact with renal transplant patients. Physicians' and nurses' perceptions are closer to the actual health state after transplantation than patients' expectations. Thus, physicians and nurses are a reliable source of information for patients about the health state they can expect after transplantation.Link for e-copy: http://www.cebam.be/ Format of e-copy: OVID (via CEBAM - personal login recquired) Record link: https://kce.docressources.info/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=2127 [article]Het recht om vergeten te worden in borstkanker / Ans Van Ginckel / Brussels [Belgium] : KCE = Federaal Kenniscentrum voor de Gezondheidszorg = Centre Fédéral d'Expertise des Soins de Santé = Belgian Health Care Knowledge Centre (2022)

2020-81 ; Breast carcinoma in situ ; Breast Neoplasms ; Carcinoma, Intraductal, Noninfiltrating ; Mortality ; R351 ; Survival AnalysisAbstract: Voor mensen die in het verleden kanker hebben gehad of aan een bepaalde chronische ziekte lijden, is het soms moeilijk om een schuldsaldoverzekering af te sluiten, bijvoorbeeld bij het bekomen van een hypothecair krediet. De zogenaamde wet “recht om vergeten te worden” maakt het mogelijk om de toegang tot deze verzekeringen te vergemakkelijken na een bepaalde periode (voor kanker in het algemeen 10 jaar), en onder bepaalde voorwaarden. In dit verband werden twee lijsten opgesteld die de desbetreffende aandoeningen vermelden. En om rekening te houden met medische vooruitgang, moeten deze lijsten – ook “referentieroosters” genoemd –regelmatig opnieuw worden geëvalueerd. Het Federaal Kenniscentrum voor de Gezondheidszorg (KCE) is belast met de regelmatige herevaluatie van deze “referentieroosters”. De eerste oefening betreft borstkanker in een vroeg stadium. Op basis van een zorgvuldige analyse van de overlevingscurves voor dit type kanker hebben de KCE-onderzoekers voorstellen gedaan om de huidige wachttijd in te korten, wat mogelijk gevolgen zou kunnen hebben voor gemiddeld één op de twee vrouwen met borstkanker.
