Evaluación económica de medicamentos y tecnologías sanitarias:

Resumen

La evaluación económica de medicamentos y tecnologías sanitarias es una disciplina relativamente nueva, donde confluyen metodologías llegadas de distintas áreas de conocimiento (medicina, farmacia, epidemiología, estadística, psicometría, economía, etc.). Por este motivo, durante un tiempo la metodología y las reglas empleadas en su elaboración y realización han sido un tanto heterogéneas y anárquícas, dado que cada investigador empleaba diferentes criterios y seguía distintas recomendaciones a la hora de diseñar, poner en marcha y analizar las evaluaciones económicas.

Cuanto más grandes somos en humildad, tanto más cerca estamos de la grandeza.
