What to prioritize in health and at what price?
Today, all countries in the world face the enormous challenge of making efficient use of their resources to meet the infinite health needs of their populations.
To assist in this task, we at the IDB have had the privilege of bringing together the world’s best specialists in explicit priority setting and drug price regulation, who have contributed their vision of how countries can improve decision-making processes to define what to finance in health and at what price. This course is the result of the 10-year experience of the Criteria Network in generating knowledge about improving the efficiency of public spending on health.
