Methods for statistical inference for cost-effectiveness (C/E) ratios for individual treatments and for incremental cost-effectiveness (∆C/∆E) ratios when two treatments are compared are presented. In a lemma, we relate the relative magnitude of two C/E ratios to the ∆C/∆E ratio. We describe a stati

We review statistical methods for analysing healthcare resource use and costs, their ability to address skewness, excess zeros, multimodality and heavy right tails, and their ease for general use. We aim to provide guidance on analysing resource use and costs focusing on randomised trials, although
## Abstract We consider the problem of assessing new and existing technologies for their cost‐effectiveness in the case where data on both costs and effects are available from a clinical trial, and we address it by means of the cost‐effectiveness acceptability curve. The main difficulty in these an
## SUMMARY In cost‐effectiveness analyses (CEA) that use randomized controlled trials (RCTs), covariates of prognostic importance may be imbalanced and warrant adjustment. In CEA that use non‐randomized studies (NRS), the selection on observables assumption must hold for regression and matching met
