When going 'beyond the patient', to measure QALYs for unpaid carers, a number of additional methodological considerations and value judgements must be made. While there is no theoretical reason to restrict the measurement of QALYs to patients, decisions have to be made about which carers to consider, what instruments to use and how to aggregate and ...

... We can therefore conclude that either we should go for equality; and in that case QALYs are unfair because they haven't got enough of an ageist bias. Or we should accept consequentialism; and in that case QALYs have just the right sort of ageist bias.

Health Policy, 1989
Health Policy, 10 (1988) 259-266 featured an article by Harris which argued that QALYs (quality-adjusted life years) are unjust, and that their use as a tool for distributing scarce health resources cannot be morally defended. Harris' paper is the latest in a series of articles purporting to criticise the concept and application of QALYs. However, most

AbstractQuality‐adjusted life‐years (QALYs) calculated from time tradeoff (TTO) based preferences have a time preference component. To impose a conventional discount rate on these implicitly discounted QALYs introduces some degree of double discounting.

Risk Analysis, 2002
Quality adjusted life years (QALYs) and willingness to pay (WTP) are alternative measures of the value of reductions in health risk that are often used in evaluating environmental, health, and safety practices. Although both methods are based on individual preferences, the underlying assumptions differ.

A QALY is a QALY is a QALY—or is it not?
2016This chapter looks at a theoretical framework for diversions from the assumption that all units of health gain have equal social value, and examins different ways in which welfarists and non-welfarists may call for cost per weighted QALY analyses, for efficiency-based reasons, and equity-motivated reasons.

The QALY is the product of life expectancy (estimated in years) and its quality over that time (estimated in utilities or QOL units). It theoretically enables direct comparison of the costs of obtaining different health outcomes through cost utility analysis (CUA).

Precision QALYs, Precisely Unjust
Cambridge Quarterly of Healthcare Ethics, 2019Abstract:Warwick Heale has recently defended the notion of individualized and personalized Quality-Adjusted Life Years (QALYs) in connection with health care resource allocation decisions. Ordinarily, QALYs are used to make allocation decisions at the population level.
