Join the latest INHSU Conversations Webinar, organised by the Early-Mid-Career Researcher Special Interest Group (INHSU EMCR) and the Center for Health Economics of Treatment Interventions for Substance Use Disorder, HCV, and HIV (CHERISH).

In this webinar, we’ll be joined by Dr. Ali Jalali and Dr. Shashi Kapadia, who are both Research Affiliates at CHERISH and faculty at Weill Cornell Medicine. Dr. Ali Jalali will provide an overview of economic evaluations in the context of substance use disorder treatment interventions, with Dr. Shashi Kapadia, moderating.

In this hour-long webinar, you will learn:

  • The overall purpose and approach to economic evaluations alongside clinical interventions
  • How to apply best practices for determining intervention costs
  • How to review approaches to estimating cost-effectiveness, including common statistical issues encountered

Is this webinar for you?

While primarily aimed at early and mid-career researchers, this webinar is open to anyone with an interest in improving health outcomes for people who use drugs.
