A Note on the Estimation of Confidence Intervals for Cost-Effectiveness When Costs and Effects Are Censored
Abstract
BACKGROUND: The relation between methodological advances in estimation of confidence intervals (CIs) for incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICER) and estimation of cost effectiveness in the presence of censoring has not been explored. The authors address the joint problem of estimating ICER precision in the presence of censoring.
METHODS: Using patient-level data (n = 168) on cost and survival from a published placebo-controlled trial, the …
