Download or read book Health Status and Health Policy written by Donald L. Patrick and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1993 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has two major objectives. The first is to propose the Health Resource Allocation Strategy as a social and political process for comparing costs and outcomes of alternative policy options in the health and medical care arena to select interventions with greatest benefit in relation to cost. The second objective is to provide a reference for state-ofthe-art development and application of health status and quality of life measures for health care policy and research, including clinical applications. Not all policy applications of health- related quality of life involve resource allocation. Thus we present guidelines to assessment for use in program evaluation, monitoring of health policy, clinical trials, and health services research.
