Using a survey plus an animated video to understand people’s views on health inequality. Our paper demonstrates the feasibility of this approach and estimates an inequality aversion parameter for Uganda @thanzilaonse @kennykatumba @CHEyork sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

New book published today! An essential guide to value sets for EQ-5D-5L. Available via open access @SpringerHealth. #EQ5D link.springer.com/book/10.1007/9… 1/3

The aim of the 2nd EuroQol African Academy Meeting is to help build capacity in the field of HTA, measurement of health-related quality of life, and cost utility analysis with an emphasis on the role of patient reported outcome measures, particularly EQ-5D. 2/2

The first EQ-5D-5L value set and user guide for Uganda have been published, offering a 'lite' protocol to support health economic evaluations and health technology assessment for healthcare decision making in Uganda and East Africa. Read more here: thanzi.org/developing-the…

A value set for the EQ-5D-5L for Uganda is now available, published Open Access in Pharmacoeconomics by Fan Yang, Kenneth Katumba and colleagues. #EQ5D @FanYangHealthEc @kennykatumba link.springer.com/article/10.100… (1of2)

This work was a collaboration between @MRC_Uganda, @CHEyork, @IDIMakerere , @LSHTM, and was supported by @thanzilaonse and @EuroQol. Many thanks to my co PI @FanYangHealthEc for great teamwork and co-lead.

Using a smaller sample to develop the EQ-5D-5L value set in resource-constrained settings, our study suggests its feasibility and developed the value set for Uganda. Great team work! @thanzilaonse @EuroQol link.springer.com/article/10.100…

New paper from @FanYangHealthEc & colleagues used @TuftsCEVR Global Health CEA Registry to examine degree to which inequalities are considered in economic evaluations of health interventions in LMICs tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.108…

Using an illustrative example, we demonstrate how the uncertainty analysis could be conducted in distributional cost-effectiveness analysis (DCEA) to inform policy recommendations. Read more in our paper in @MedDecMak journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/02…

We've got a new paper out today in @MedDecMak, led by @FanYangHealthEc on the incorporation of inequality considerations in cost-effectiveness analysis. tl;dr if you want to do an equity-informative CEA, you have to do it properly. There are no shortcuts. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/02…
