Recently, a number of papers have brought up the issue of how to make cost-effectiveness (CE) studies stochastic, i.e. how to obtain confidence intervals for CE ratios. In this note we present a bootstrap procedure for estimating bias-corrected confidence intervals for CE ratios. The bootstrap proce
We evaluated four methods for computing confidence intervals for cost-effectiveness ratios developed from randomized controlled trials: the box method, the Taylor series method, the nonparametric bootstrap method and the Fieller theorem method. We performed a Monte Carlo experiment to compare these
Application of cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) is growing rapidly in health care. Two general approaches to analysis are differentiated by the type of data available: (i) deterministic models based upon secondary analysis of retrospective data from one or more trials and other sources; and (ii) st
