Modeling Approaches for HTA: A Practical Hands-On Workshop

The workshop combines theoretical concepts with practical hands-on exercises comprising five different modeling techniques applied in Public Health and HTA. Real-world case examples from different acute and chronic diseases will be discussed.

The course covers the following subjects:

• Modeling overview and taxonomy
• Decision trees, state-transition models (Markov models) and partitioned survival models
• Microsimulation models
• Discrete event simulation models
• Infectious disease models
• Other modeling approaches (e.g., agent-based models, system dynamics models, causal inference models,
  biologic systems models)
• Handling uncertainty and variability
• Handling individual behavior and waiting lines
• Handling dynamic transmissions and herd immunity
• New feature: Special session on COVID-19 modeling with international experts in the field
