Health Management and Policy Presentations
This webinar reviews methods for conducting cost studies in public health settings, including strategies for estimating the financial and ecnomic costs of delivering public health services, and analytic approaches to identifying factors that influence delivery costs. These types of studies are of increasing importance to policy and practice stakeholders given the need for evidence about the return-on-investment (ROI) generated through public health delivery.
