Economic Evaluation of End of Life Care (EconEndLife) is a European Research Council funded project, conducted through the Universities of Bristol & Birmingham
@sabinebest@MarieCurieEOLC @UoBrisHEB @joclarkecoast Good to see the findings of this study after having worked on the qualitative development work for the ICECAP-SCM measure
What a great use of existing data from @MarieCurieEOLC funded research for a secondary analysis of a health economic measure for end of life @UoBrisHEB @joclarkecoast
NEW: "An analysis of the construct validity and responsiveness of the ICECAP-SCM capability wellbeing measure in a palliative care hospice setting" Research led by @GarethMyring@Paul_M_Mitchell and @joclarkecoast @UoBrisHEB https://t.co/4mLoMPm9eI
Of £2.56billion of funds for non-commercial research projects active in the UK in 2018, only 0.21% were spent on #palliative and end of life care research. https://t.co/iV8aN4ooOX Up from 0.16% in 2014, but still way too little by far.
Many thanks @cinzia_dinovi and Elenka Brenna for the opportunity to visit Pavia & for your excellent hospitality & good discussions on ageing, long-term care and @EconEndLife
Stark contrast from @DrLizSampson between cancer (speedy diagnosis, most care paid for, potential for cure, hospice or hospital care) & dementia (long wait for diagnosis, most care paid for by self or family, no cure, nursing home care). #MCRSM19
Importance of needs-based access to palliative/supportive/EoLC for those with dementia & current failure of health systems for those with severe dementia pointed out by @DrLizSampson at #MCRSM19@MarieCurieEOLC conference
This is an fine paper - essential reading for anyone interested in social preferences and the end of life premium debate. Those of you who attended my talk at #iHEA2019 will have seen me present a few extracts from this study.
Work on @EconEndLife from @joclarkecoast & colleagues, using @QualHealthEcon methods to look at feasibility of best worst scaling task with those receiving hospice care
