Economics for health policy, planning and service delivery
By:   []
Date: None

Health care managers, planners, providers and policymakers are continually challenged by increasing demands on health systems and constraints on the availability of resources to meet those demands.

Economics provides an important toolkit for meeting these challenges across a wide range of problems and settings, ranging from how taxes and subsidies might be used to promote healthy communities through to changing the way health care is delivered and the ways providers are paid.

This five-day course will introduce you to key economic concepts and evaluation methods for more informed and confident decision-making. You will learn how to apply these insights to protect, promote and restore health in populations and how to effectively plan, manage and deliver health services and policy.

Who should attend

If your professional activities or interests include health care management, planning, service provision or policy and you are looking to gain practical skills to identify and address economic challenges within the health system, then this course is for you.
