Course Overview

Modelling Cost-Effectiveness in Healthcare by getsmarter is a technical course crafted by the faculty from the Department of Health Policy at LSE, an amalgamation of interdisciplinary research and teaching. The course aims to enlighten candidates on how a health policy is designed, implemented and evaluated and the scope of improvement therein. In Modelling Cost-Effectiveness in Healthcare Certification Syllabus, candidates will examine economic theory under whose landscape modelling techniques can be applied. They will also be introduced to cost-effectiveness models like decision trees and Markov models while discovering the key methods of sourcing quality data. Through this, they will receive one-on-one support from the head tutor, success advisor, and the global success team.
