Caros colegas,

No âmbito do Ciclo de Seminários do CEG-IST, temos o prazer de anunciar o
seguinte seminário

Data:  25 de Março de 2013, Segunda-feira, 16:00-17:30
Local: Anfiteatro AM (IST, campus Alameda, Pavilhão de Mecânica II).

Tema: Healthcare prioritisation in good times and bad

Palestrante: Alec Morton (London School of Economics and Political
Science, London, UK); trabalho conjunto com Gwyn Bevan e Mara Airoldi (LSE)

Resumo: Prioritising investment in healthcare presents both technical and
political challenges.  In this talk I will present a theory-based yet
practical approach to help health service managers make decisions about
spending.  The approach has both a social, participative aspect, and a
technical, modelling aspect; it will be introduced through two case
studies, one of which took place in a benign environment where growth
money was available,  and the other in an environment where there was
pressure to make savings.  In designing our approach we consciously tried
to build on decision theory and the normative welfare economics of
healthcare and I will discuss how our appreciation of theory helped us in
designing a robust and comprehensible decision aiding approach.

Este seminário está integrado nas aulas de Modelos de Apoio à Decisão e do
Programa Doutoral em Engenharia e Gestão.
