The aim of the course is to introduce students to the application of economic thinking to the analysis of health policy and health systems. Specifically, we will survey the organisation, financing and delivery of health services, the economic evaluation of alternative ways of providing health care, economics of health behaviours and behavioural economics. The material to be covered combines the conceptual and the theoretical with practical applications of health economic thinking. Sessions will be largely interactive involving brief lectures, group work, open class discussion and occasional seminars from ‘visitors’ who will bring a variety of practical experiences to the classroom.
