The differences between the various approaches can be subtle, and one purpose of this article is to clarify some important distinctions.\n        \n        \n          Discussion\n          We discuss alternative measures in the framework of individual, patient-level, incremental net benefits. In particular we examine the probability of cost-effectiveness for an individual, proposed by Willan.\n        \n        \n          Summary\n          We argue that this is a useful addition to the range of cost-effectiveness measures, but will be of secondary interest to most decision makers. We also demonstrate that Willan's proposed estimate of this probability is logically flawed.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "description": "Visit the original government dataset for complete information, documentation, and data access.", "downloadURL": "https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC100784/", "mediaType": "text/html", "title": "Official Government Data Source"}], "identifier": "https://healthdata.gov/api/views/tcna-2fg7", "issued": "2025-07-14", "keyword": ["cost-effectiveness", "health-economics", "medical-interventions", "net-benefits", "nih"], "landingPage": "https://healthdata.gov/d/tcna-2fg7", "modified": "2025-09-06", "programCode": ["009:033"], "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "National Institutes of Health"}, "theme": ["NIH"], "title": "The probability of cost-effectiveness"}
