Health Policy

Health policy concerns the rules that public bodies and payers set for access to care and for bringing medicines to market at an agreed price. Health economics informs these choices by weighing value for money against fairness, and regulation and pricing in turn shape the evidence and costs that economic evaluations draw on.
