Résumé : | [BDSP. Notice produite par IRDES R0xnkDCG. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. Distinct from but complementary to clinical or epidemiological approaches to disease burden assessment, analysis of the economic impact of ill-health can address a number of policy questions concerning the consequences of disease or injury. Some of these questions relate to the microeconomic level of households, firms or government - such as the impact of ill-health on a household's income or a firm's profits - while others relate to the macroeconomic level, including the aggregate impact of a disease on a country's current gross domestic product or its future growth prospects. Resulting estimates - for a particular disease, injury type or for diminished health status in the population generally - can usefully inform decision makers about the overall magnitude of economic losses and their distribution across a number of key drivers or categories of cost. Although insufficient as a basis for setting priorities and allocating resources in health - for which data on effectiveness are also needed - economic burden studies may help to identify possible strategies for reducing the cost of disease or injury via appropriate preventive action or treatment strategies. |
