Preferred term

expected value of perfect information  

Definition

  • Simply basing decisions on expected cost-effectiveness or, equivalently, net health or monetary benefit will ignore the question of whether the current evidence is a sufficient basis for adopting or reimbursing a health technology. It would fail to address the question of whether further research is needed to support such a decision in the future.
