Structure and agency in the economics of public policy for TB control by Foster, Nicola

“…Recognising healthcare workers as those who ultimately express policies, the behaviour of healthcare workers was included in the cost-effectiveness analysis by 1) using data from a pragmatic trial reflecting routine practice and clinical decision-making at the time of the study; 2) developing a conceptual framework of the relationship between behaviour at decision points and disease outcomes; and 3) investigating how these interactions may influence the value of the diagnostic algorithm. …”
