Abstract

The National Cancer Institute Division of Cancer Control and Population Science hosted a virtual conference on the Future of Cancer Health Economics Research and included a presentation from a workgroup that considered current challenges and future directions in health economics research centered on cancer treatment. The workgroup identified 3 broad categories of focus: data limitations, opportunities for training for clinicians and health economists interested in collaboration, and the need for prospective economic study of cancer treatment. Within these areas of focus, the workgroup recommended the following: improvement of the availability of key economic measures in data available to researchers, creation of more comprehensive datasets robust to insurance type or coverage, development of cancer care health economics research-focused symposia, instituting clear mechanisms to support integration of economic analyses alongside clinical trials, development of standardized methods to measure the cost of cancer care to health-care systems and patients, and development of standardized evaluations that include measures of social determinants of health.

癌症治疗中的卫生经济学研究:当前挑战与未来方向。

国家癌症研究所癌症控制和人口科学部主办了一场关于癌症健康经济学研究未来的虚拟会议，其中包括一个工作组的演讲，该工作组审议了以癌症治疗为中心的健康经济学研究的当前挑战和未来方向。工作组确定了3大类重点:数据限制、对合作感兴趣的临床医生和卫生经济学家的培训机会，以及对癌症治疗进行前瞻性经济研究的必要性。在这些重点领域内，工作组建议如下:改善研究人员可获得的数据中关键经济指标的可用性，创建更全面的数据集，以保险类型或覆盖范围为基础，发展以癌症护理卫生经济学研究为重点的专题讨论会，建立明确的机制，支持将经济分析与临床试验结合起来，开发标准化的方法来衡量医疗保健系统和患者的癌症护理成本，制定标准化评估，包括衡量健康的社会决定因素。
