Modelling for cost-effectiveness analysis

Statistics in Medicine, 1999
A model creates the framework for a cost-effectiveness analysis, allowing decision makers to explore the implications of using an intervention in different ways and under different conditions. To serve its purpose a model must produce accurate predictions and allow for substantial variation in the factors that influence costs and effects.
