Abstract

Background

When allocating limited resources, public and private sector leaders in health policy consider both the health and economic value of new measures for cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevention. The ability to develop and prioritize policy measures is hindered by important gaps in health economics data.

Methods and Results

The Policy Research Implementation Group (PRIG) of the National Forum for Heart Disease and Stroke Prevention convened a symposium to develop priorities for research on the economics of CVD primary prevention and elimination of CVD disparities. Suggested top opportunities include expanded CVD surveillance, advances in evaluation and economic modeling of primary prevention, and use of behavioral economics to identify new prevention strategies. Enhanced policy, funding, and leadership support are vital to realizing this research agenda.

Conclusions

Targeted research on the health and economic value of CVD prevention, especially to eliminate CVD disparities, would bolster the justification for increased investment in cardiovascular health.

心血管疾病的卫生经济学:确定研究议程

在分配有限的资源时，公共和私营部门的卫生政策领导者会同时考虑心血管疾病(CVD)预防新措施的健康和经济价值。卫生经济学数据方面的重大差距阻碍了制定政策措施和确定优先次序的能力。方法和结果国家心脏病和卒中预防论坛政策研究实施小组(PRIG)召开了一次研讨会，以确定心血管疾病一级预防和消除心血管疾病差异的经济学研究重点。建议的最佳机会包括扩大心血管疾病监测，改进初级预防的评估和经济建模，以及利用行为经济学确定新的预防策略。加强政策、资金和领导支持对实现这一研究议程至关重要。结论有针对性地研究心血管疾病预防的健康和经济价值，特别是消除心血管疾病的差异，将为增加心血管健康投资提供依据。
