monetary value  

Definición

  • By avoiding the difficult and uncomfortable issue of assigning monetary values to intangible health benefits, cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) sacrifices the easy decision rule of cost-benefit analysis (CBA): An intervention or program represents an economically appropriate use of scarce resources if and only if the value of its health benefits exceeds its costs. Unfortunately, for the analyst preparing a CEA and the decision-maker faced with the findings from a CEA, the monetization of intangible health benefits by CEA can only be avoided in appearance.
