A research project funded by the National Institute on Aging to evaluate the cost effectiveness and health disparity impacts of novel Alzheimer's disease treatments using advanced modeling and community engagement.
Description
This project studies the implications of cost effectiveness models for new treatments for Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias (AD/ADRD) on health disparities using Markov models, literature and clinical trial data, community based participatory research with focus groups, and experimental preference data. It involves community engagement in Richmond, VA, and models treatment take-up and economic value of reducing AD/ADRD in different populations.
