Project Summary

Presently, Cost-Effectiveness Analysis has been increasingly adopted in health technology assessment. In addition, it is recognized as an important tool for policy makers in the health care resource allocation decision making process. However, the presentation of Cost-Effectiveness Analysis results in terms of cost per Quality-Adjusted Life Year (QALY) is still arbitrary for policy makers to decide whether the technology is deemed to be cost-effective and is appropriate for adoption or reimbursement. This study aims to determine the willingness to pay for a quality-adjusted life year (WTP per QAL Y) for use as a ceiling threshold in the Thai context. Face to Face-interviews were conducted among 1,191 Thai people aged between 15-65 years old from 9 selected provinces. Three hypothetical scenarios concerning, blindness, paralysis, and allergy were used in this study. The study is expected to be completed by the end of January, 2009.
