Preferred term

person trade-off  

Definition(s)

  • The person trade-off (PTO) is a method to elicit social preferences that has been advocated for use in cost-utility analyses instead of elicitations that yield individual utilities for different health states. The PTO is thought to incorporate societal considerations about how treatment benefits are distributed across a population rather than simply maximizing the health benefit of treatments.
