摘要
This paper discusses the need for a health economics perspective and some of the central methodological issues raised by economic appraisals, including cost-effectiveness and cost-utility analyses. It illustrates how cost-effectiveness studies can inform policy and practice decisions concerning the treatment of schizophrenia, focusing on five generic evaluation questions commonly raised. Examples are drawn from recent and current UK research.
