International Health Economics Association healtheconomics.org 1 This page is intentionally left blank 2 I am pleased to extend my warmest greetings to everyone attending Transforming Health & Economics: the 8th World Congress on Health Economics, and to welcome all of the international delegates who have travelled to Toronto for this conference. Recognizing that the burden of poor maternal health and high child mortality constrains the prosperity of many countries, Canada announced last year the Muskoka Initiative to improve maternal and child health in developing countries. This is but one example of how ill health imposes significant economic costs on society. Your efforts to add economics to the discussion of health and health care are important to our understanding of the challenges faced, and to our ability to manage them successfully. I commend the members of the International Health Economics Association for bringing a high standard of debate to the application of economics to health and health care systems. I am certain that everyone attending this conference will be inspired by the strategies presented here. Please accept my best wishes for a productive and memorable meeting.

APERSONAL MESSAGE FROM THE PREMIER
On behalf of the Government of Ontario, I am delighted to extend warm greetings to everyone attending Transforming Health and Economics: The 8th World Congress on Health Economics, hosted by the International Health Economics Association (IHEA).
As Premier of Ontario, I understand the importance of health care economics and the need for supporting research and innovation in this field. With leading health economists and experts from over 70 countries sharing their ideas, I am confident that IHEA members will find this conference stimulating and thought-provoking. I commend your commitment to deepening the discussion of the important and timely issues raised at this year’s congress.
If this is your first time in Toronto or if you are a returning visitor — I am pleased to welcome you to the provincial capital. I hope you find the time to enjoy some of the outstanding attractions and unique events the city has to offer.
Please accept my best wishes for an informative and productive congress.

Greetings!
On behalf of the local organizing committee of the 8th World Congress of the International Health Economics Association, I welcome you to Toronto, a city that derived its name from a word in the local Huron dialect meaning “place of meetings.” So, it is appropriate that we are meeting together in an emerging world-class city.
In thinking about the conference theme – Transforming Health and Economics – I can’t help but be struck the year in the West that the post World-War II “baby boom” begins to turn age 65. The issues surrounding this trend have been a major part of the literature for the last two decades. It is now time to begin to turn our attention 30 years into the future when the number of “boomers” begins to decrease, and issues regarding excess capacity and the need for retraining labor, among others, will predominate.
the tremendous growth of our discipline has shown that we can collectively develop the tools and expertise necessary to investigate the potential implications of different strategies and insightfully inform policy. The iHEA meeting plays an important role in this regard since it provides a forum for debating ideas, building the
attractions. Whether your interests lie in the arts, sports or nature, there are innumerable choices available. Toronto has experienced a cultural renaissance with recent expansions and renovations of the Royal Ontario Seasons Centre for the Performing Arts. Toronto is also home to the Toronto Blue Jays major league baseball and Stratford, home of the Shakespeare festival, are all an easy drive from Toronto.

With pleasure,

an inclusive space that we hope will trigger
debate, bring together diverging opinions and
facilitate solutions.
Reimbursement decision-making for pharmaceutical products is complex. Traditional health technology assessment (HTA) principles review the clinical and cost-effectiveness of drugs to facilitate the reimbursement decision-making process. However, these principles do not necessarily account for other more complex variables, such as severity of the disease, unmet needs, patient experiences and societal benefits related to the disease area and patient population. How might we create a novel framework that allows decision-makers to account, in a structured or rigorous manner, for some of these qualitative measures to complement the traditional HTA?
