- Profile
-
I am Emeritus Professor in the School of Health and Related Research (ScHARR) at the University of ºù«Ӱҵ. I have been a health economist for 40 years. My special interest is in the measurement and valuation of health for economic evaluation where I have published widely.
I am perhaps best known for my work in developing a preference-based measure of health for the SF-36 (SF-6D), but with colleagues have further developed and extended these methods to a number of specific conditions including measures in asthma, cancer, overactive bladder, diabetes, mental health, dementia and epilepsy. Most recently with colleagues across six countries developed a new generic measure of health and wellbeing called the EQ-HWB for health and social care users and their informal carers.
My methods research has also examined issues around reviewing utility measures, mapping between measures, valuation methods (including the use of DCE), using utilities in cost effectiveness models and developing ways to incorporate equity concerns such as burden of disease into the weights applied to QALYs and the role of well-being in economic evaluation. I have been a member of the National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE) Technology Appraisal Committee and has been an adviser on various aspects benefit measurement to NICE.
