Résumé : | [BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS KBxLR0x3. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. Programme budgeting and marginal analysis (PBMA) is becoming an increasingly popular tool in setting health service priorities. This paper presents a novel multi-attribute utility (MAU) approach to setting health service priorities using PBMA. This approach includes identifying the attributes of the MAU function ; describing and scaling attributes ; quantifying trade-offs between attributes ; and combining single conditional utility functions into the MAU function. We illustrate the MAU approach using a PBMA case study in mental health services from the Community Health Sector in metropolitan South Australia. |
