Demonstrating Value: Health Economics in Laboratory Medicine

Date:  July 14, 2021

Time: 9:00am PDT

Health economic evaluations are used to inform decision-making in healthcare as they aim to assess the impact of new health interventions, technologies, or services by quantifying their costs and consequences against an appropriate comparator. Data and insights from laboratory tests help guide clinical decision-making, support policy changes, healthcare service planning and can have substantial influence on care pathways. The ability to link the value of laboratory medicine to downstream outcomes is critically important. This webinar will explore well-established tools used for health economic evaluation, as well as key considerations when performing health economic evaluations of laboratory tests.

Learning Objectives

• To appreciate the opportunities associated with increased health economic literacy in laboratory medicine.
• Understand key tools and opportunities to utilize health economics to support decision making.
• Identify gaps and potential opportunities for determining the value of a laboratory test at your institution through health economic evaluations

Webinars will be available for unlimited on-demand viewing after live event.
