Detailed description
Cost-Effectiveness Analysis in Health

Second Edition

Dr. Muennig has taken a complex subject and translated it into lay terms without compromising the integrity of the method. He does it with a touch of humor, and with lots of practical tips that will be valued highly by analysts who actually have to crunch the numbers."

Milton C. Weinstein, Henry J. Kaiser Professor of Health Policy and Management, Harvard School of Public Health

This new edition is an excellent update, particularly the practical worked examples provided and extensive use of Markov models."

Peter Franks, professor of family and community medicine, University of California, Davis

Peter Muennig's engaging new text on cost-effectiveness provides students with easy-to-digest, step-by-step illustrations of how and why to use this important tool and clearly worked examples that students can readily follow."

Sherry A. Glied, department chair and professor of health policy and management, Mailman School of Public Health, Columbia University

This is a wonderful tutorial on cost-effectiveness. It is a comprehensive overview of the theory and the practice of cost-effectiveness analysis that is perfect as an introduction or a refresher."

Ted Ganiats, professor, Department of Family and Preventive Medicine, and executive director, UCSD Health Services Research Center, University of California, San Diego

Peter Muennig has once again written an unusually clear and comprehensive primer for cost-effectiveness analysis. It is the only textbook on this subject, to my knowledge, that provides the practical dimension of conducting cost-effectiveness analysis."

Sue J. Goldie, professor of health policy and decision science and director, Program in Health Decision Science, Harvard School of Public Health
