Title

Essays on the cost-effectiveness of digital health interventions. (Research)

Abstract

This doctoral research examines the cost-effectiveness and cost-utility of digital interventions and applications in healthcare. Deploying e-health interventions and tools enhances care accessibility and reduces the workload of healthcare organizations. Care providers can remotely monitor patients and their (vital) parameters, which can shorten hospital stays and enable more timely interventions when needed. The study assesses the extent to which these digital solutions are cost-effective and the societal and economic value they deliver. Both hospital data and patient-reported outcomes are analysed to understand their impact on quality of life and healthcare utilization.
