The research officer will work with Professor Justin Cobb and Professor Paul Dolan from the LSE to value different surgical interventions through revealed and stated preference methods and the monetisation of wellbeing. This research will generate robust monetary valuations of health outcomes associated with various orthopaedic procedures, enabling more informed resource allocation decisions within healthcare.
The research officer will be responsible for designing and implementing stated preference surveys (such as discrete choice experiments), and analysing revealed preference data to estimate the value patients and the public place on different surgical outcomes. They will develop methodologies for converting wellbeing impacts into monetary terms, drawing on subjective wellbeing valuation techniques.
