First Assignment

Read the assigned material in the case packet. Be prepared to discuss the following:

  1. Why might one want to estimate the dollar value of improving health?
  2. How would you obtain an estimate of this value?

Suppose that an individual has a life-threatening illness. There is a new treatment that will completely eliminate the illness. When assessing the benefit to cost ratio of this treatment, should we consider future medical costs that this individual will incur? What about future non-medical costs, such as housing?
