HR_SCI 9100: Integrated Seminar in Health, Health Care, and Economics
Focusing on knowledge needed for researchers in health and rehabilitation science disciplines, this doctoral seminar course emphasizes the application of economics to the study of health and health care. This course will discuss and examine the economic theories, empirical research issues, and policy topics related to demand-side aspects (demand for health and health care, health production, health care utilization, health insurance), supply-side aspects (payment policies, health care provider behaviors, cost and efficiency of health care organizations), market competition, quality of health care, and government's role in health care. In addition, this course will provide a comprehensive overview and discussion of analytic tools in economic evaluations (e.g., cost analysis, cost-effectiveness analysis, cost-benefit analysis, and cost-utility analysis), which are critical for health professionals to understand and assess the efficacy of health care procedures, treatments, devices, and interventions from an economic perspective.
Credit Hours: 3
