Biography

Martin Henriksson is a Senior Associate Professor at Linköping University whose research is primarily focused on health economic evaluations within research education. His work contributes to methodological development, ensuring a coherent and appropriate approach to health economic evaluations. These evaluations serve as crucial tools in supporting decisions regarding the allocation of healthcare resources. By estimating costs and health consequences of various interventions in the healthcare sector, such as surgical procedures, pharmaceutical treatments, and prevention programs, Henriksson aims to inform decision making effectively. He concentrates on applied economic evaluation and seeks to address key questions related to the requirements of relevant economic evaluations, as well as practical methods that meet these requirements. His research interests also encompass the implications of health policies on economic evaluations and how evaluations impact healthcare decision making at various levels within the Swedish healthcare system. The interplay between national decisions, made by bodies like the Dental Pharmaceutical Benefit Agency and the National Board of Health and Welfare, and local levels is a primary focus, as Henriksson investigates how these layers of decision making are interconnected.
