Methodological and statistical research incorporates the ability to apply valid and defensible statistical reasoning and inference (i.e., how to make valid decisions based on statistical information) for a crucial skill area for HEOR professionals.
Real-world evidence (RWE) uses real-world data (RWD)—or data that are obtained outside of the context of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to understand questions related to performance of technology or services in clinical practice.
Health technology assessment is a multidisciplinary process that uses explicit methods to determine the value of a health technology at different points in its lifecycle. The purpose is to inform decision-making in order to promote an equitable, efficient, and high-quality health system.
Economic evaluation—such as cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) and cost-benefit analysis—can play an important role in informing healthcare decisions by comparing costs and outcomes of healthcare interventions and assessing the payer's or society’s willingness to pay for them.
Study Approaches include the ways in which HEOR professionals approach their practice and conduct their research.
Patient-centered research is the active, meaningful, and collaborative interaction between patients and researchers across all stages of the research process, where research decision making is guided by patients’ contributions as partners, recognizing their specific experiences, values, and expertise.
Health policy and regulatory includes the authoritative and monitoring of decisions made regarding health or the pursuit of health in the legislative, executive, or judicial branches of governement, and in relation to attempts to influence and ensure health and safety standards are met.
