CHILD HEALTH ECONOMICS AT THE IHEA 7TH WORLD CONFERENCE
The IHEA 7th world conference on health economics witnessed a large increase in papers on child health. More than a dozen sessions focused exclusively on child health issues including tobacco use, obesity, the income gradient, QALYs for youth and other issues in economic evaluation, insurance, child survival, birth outcomes, and disability. A number of sessions also included papers on child health topics such as youth and alcohol policy, vaccinations, child maltreatment, and suicide. Finally, the poster session included many papers that addressed similar topics in child health.
Some of the increased interest in child health issues derives from the focus on childhood obesity and policies to address this problem. Two sessions were devoted to childhood obesity with papers in one session addressing policies to reduce consumption of soda and snacks whereas, in the other session, papers addressed lifecycle costs, the impact of economic development in developing countries, and peer effects. Childhood obesity is a worldwide problem and the world conference provides an exciting forum for researchers to address this critical problem.
Interest in child health issues have become a hot topic in economic evaluations as well. Researchers now recognize that children are not simply “little adults” and application of economic models derived from an adult perspective may not be appropriate. Recent work in the economic evaluation of child health has adopted this perspective and the first book devoted exclusively to issues in the economic evaluation of child health (edited by Wendy Ungar) is now available from Oxford University Press. Three sessions addressed economic evaluation of child health with one paper presenting some of the first data on utility weights derived from adolescent subjects. Other papers addressed methodological considerations associated with future costs, valuing survival gains, and economic evaluations involving children in developing countries. Given the sessions on this topic in Beijing, one has to expect that interest in children and economic evaluation will continue to increase among health economists.
Finally, researchers and policy makers recognize that children are special populations because of their vulnerability. The problems facing children differ depending on whether one is talking about developing or developed countries. In the developing world, deaths to children far exceed those in developing countries and policies to avert these deaths are a primary interest. The World Health Organization has made reducing child mortality a priority in their Millennium Development Goals. In developed countries, researchers and policy makers focus on access and financing of services such as mental health and insurance expansions, whether education improves health, and whether policy can influence the gradient between income and health. All of these issues are of interest to health economists because of our ability to contribute to policy development that addresses both equity and efficiency.
Child health is likely to be an important issue at the 8th world conference in Toronto coming in 2011. Topics important to developing and developed countries will be highlighted. To further interest in the economics of child health, a special reception and plenary devoted to child health issues is being planned. Researchers interested in child health should contact Mick Tilford at tilfordmickj@uams.edu or Wendy Ungar at wendy.ungar@sickkids.ca with suggestions for promoting a child health agenda that emphasizes transforming health and economics.
