Welcome
to the website for the Australian Health Economics Society Inc.
The field of health
economics in Australia is a dynamic and growing field which attracts
a great deal of interest and attention from Universities, Governments,
private providers and financiers, and suppliers. Health economics in
Australia is practised by individuals from a wide
range of disciplinary backgrounds and this diversity is reflected
in the Australian Health Economics Society.
The aim of the Society
is to promote the study, practice and development of the field of
health economics in Australia. Its members are drawn from
across Australia, New Zealand and other countries around the world.
Our annual conference
regularly draws presenters and attendees from around Australia,
New Zealand, Asia, Canada, the UK and other countries. The evaluation of new
practices and technologies usually figures quite highly at the conference.
It is an area in which a great deal of attention - and the attention
of many practitioners and researchers - is given in the practice
of health economics in Australia, especially in the evaluation of pharmaceuticals, or pharmacoeconomics.
All up, health economics
in Australia is an exciting and rewarding field for the seasoned
professional or the casual visitor. Welcome!
