Health Economics Services at The Diana, Princess of Wales HIV
Research Foundation
Health economics research focuses on pharmacoeconomics and health services
research. Local HIV natural history data has been gathered from Somerset
Hospital's outpatient clinics to develop a Markov model of disease
progression. This data, together with other local costing information, is
being used to model the cost-effectiveness of antiretroviral and
prophylaxis strategies for the state medical services.
A pharmacoeconomic consulting service is also offered to pharmaceutical
companies, medical aid schemes and other clients on the technical aspects
of expenditure modelling and pharmacoeconomic analysis.
