The Health Economics Group aims to produce world leading research in health economics by:

• improving the allocation of scarce health and social care resources
• developing and applying methods for economic evaluation
• tackling inequalities in access to care and health
• developing and applying better method to measure the benefits of health and social care

These goals are met by conducting research over three cross cutting areas:

• development and application of economic evaluation
• priority setting in health care
• econometric applications in studies of health, focused on income and health inequalities and unhealthy behaviours.
