Family and community practitioners sometimes will decide on what community-oriented interventions to propose and implement. The cost and effectiveness of such interventions are often debated by policy makers. A set of formal, quantitative methods for comparing alternative strategies in resource use and expected outcomes is known as health economic analysis. This article presents a tool to help family and community practitioners decide on the cost and effectiveness of such interventions.<\/p>\n

Critical Appraisal<\/strong><\/p>\n

Relevance<\/em><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Is the article\u2019s objective of an economic analysis similar to your clinical dilemma?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Validity<\/em><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Did the analysis provide a full economic comparison of health care strategies?<\/li>\n
    2. Were the outcomes of the interventions properly measured?<\/li>\n
    3. Were costs of the interventions measured accurately?<\/li>\n
    4. Were Data on Costs and Outcomes appropriately integrated?<\/li>\n
    5. Was an appropriate allowance made for uncertainties in the analysis?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Results <\/em><\/p>\n

        \n
      1. What were the costs and outcomes of each strategy?<\/li>\n
      2. What was the incremental analysis?<\/li>\n
      3. Did the results change when uncertainty or subgroup analysis was done?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Applicability<\/em><\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Will my patients or population expect similar outcomes?<\/li>\n
