Making Choices in Health - WHO Guide to Cost Effectiveness Analysis : WHO Guide to Cost-Effectiveness Analysis.

Several guidelines on cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) already exist. There are two reasons for producing another set. The first is that traditional or ''incremental'' CEA ignores the question of whether the current mix of interventions represents an efficient use of resources....
