The aim of this paper is to provide an overview and a few examples of how national registers are used in analyses of healthcare costs in Denmark.
The paper focuses on health economic analyses based on register data. For the sake of simplicity, the studies are divided into three main categories: economic evaluations of healthcare interventions, cost-of-illness analyses, and other analyses such as assessments of healthcare productivity.
We examined a number of studies using register-based data on healthcare costs. Use of register-based data renders a comprehensive data material, often in the form of time series, which is very useful in health economic analyses. The disadvantage of register-based data is the use of tariffs, charges, or market prices as proxies for costs in the computation of healthcare costs.
本文旨在概述丹麦如何利用国家注册信息来分析医疗成本,并提供一些实例。
本文主要关注基于注册数据的健康经济分析。为简单起见,这些研究分为三大类:医疗干预的经济评估、疾病成本分析,以及其他分析,如医疗生产力评估。
我们研究了一些使用基于注册的医疗成本数据的研究。使用基于注册的数据可以获得全面的数据资料,通常以时间序列的形式呈现,这在健康经济分析中非常有用。基于注册的数据的缺点是在计算医疗成本时使用关税、收费或市场价格作为成本的替代物。
