Excerpt
This economic abstraction form is used for the Guide to Community Preventive Services (the Community Guide) to systematically abstract data from economic evaluation studies and to adjust results when appropriate to allow for greater comparability between studies employing differing methodologies. Two reviewers will read each article, and each reviewer will complete a copy of the form. Once differing responses are reconciled by members of the Economic Review Team for the Community Guide, the data from these forms will be summarized and included in economic evaluation summary tables and databases. One of the objectives of the review is to make economic evaluations of community-based interventions more comparable within an acceptable degree of uncertainty. As such, adjustments to cost-effectiveness analyses (CEAs) and costutility analyses (CUAs) will be made when feasible and appropriate to approximate the study to standards set by the reference case of the Panel on Cost-Effectiveness in Health and Medicine (PCEHM). Similarly, all the standards pertaining to costs and quantification of benefits in the reference case will also apply to cost analyses (CAs) and cost-benefit analyses (CBAs).
