  1. MEDICAL STUDENTS’ KNOWLEDGE OF HEALTH ECONOMICSwhat should they know …what do they know … BSc (intercalating) undergrad project

  2. Teaching Health Economics • General consensus about what undergraduate economics and postgraduate economics/HSR/ public health students need to know • General competency among us to teach this (see one, do one, teach one)

  3. Growth in demand for health economics teaching • Not just “economists” who are interested • Medical students/nurses/physiotherapists are “interested” • Public Health Training (MFPH Part A) • Scottish Doctor (Learning outcome for basic, social and clinical sciences and underlying principles )

  4. Raises the questions • What to teach? • Who to teach it? • When to teach it? • Personal experience of Nottingham, UEA and now Glasgow

  5. Student Project • Reviews of the literature and documentation • Interviews with teaching staff • (Pilot) survey of three medical schools • Analysis of the survey • multi choice questions will be scored • comparisons across schools/years

  6. Issues • Pedagogy of learning • Problem Based Learning (PBL) • How does Health Economics fit into this • What do they need to know? • Costs, benefits, ICERs, WTP • Demand, supply, cost curves • Health funding, organisation • Grossman model

  7. What next? • Newcastle University and NICE are looking at establishing a teaching package • But still the issue of what to teach • And who should teach it (anyone if a “package” exists) • Larger survey to establish the extent of the “problem”
