Abstract

This chapter delves into the critical importance of economic evaluation techniques in the healthcare sector, particularly in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. It discusses the vulnerabilities exposed in global health systems and the urgent need for transformation. The text provides an overview of European Union and Italian funding programs aimed at strengthening health systems, with a focus on the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP) in Italy. It also presents a comparative analysis of the main economic evaluation techniques used in healthcare, such as Least-Cost Analysis, Cost-Effectiveness Analysis, Cost-Utility Analysis, and Cost-Benefit Analysis. The chapter highlights the methodological limitations of these techniques and the ethical concerns surrounding them, emphasizing the need for further development of integrated approaches to optimize resource allocation in healthcare.
