Scoring the 5-Level EQ-5D
Abstract
BACKGROUND: The EuroQol Group is evaluating the use of discrete choice experiments (DCEs) in valuing health states from the 5-level EQ-5D. Notably, a discrete choice (DC) model yields a latent utility that is ordinal and unbounded, whereas health utilities must have interval properties and be anchored at 0 (representing death) and 1 (representing full health).
