| Abstract: | The Annual Health Econometrics Workshop (AHEW), www.healtheconometrics.org, provides a forum to discuss the use of econometric and other quantitative methods to address issues in health economics and policy, health services research, and outcomes research. The meeting is the only one of its kind in North America and facilitates the exchange of ideas among the growing number of health econometricians around the world. It allows for considerable exchange of ideas between junior and senior investigators in ways that no other health economics or econometrics workshop in the U.S. does. AHEW was inaugurated in 2009. The 2012 and 2013 workshop was funded by an R13 grant from AHRQ 2013 (5R13HS021019) that provided the much-needed support to establish this workshop as a premier meeting in the world. We have seen record increases in paper submissions in last consecutive years. We are seeking renewal of our current R13 grant for the years 2014, 2015, and 2016. The venue for the 2014 workshop is tentatively planned at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Venues for 2015--2016 are not yet finalized. However, we have received overwhelming responses from researchers across the country offering to host these workshops. We seek funds to enable us to continue to build a strong workshop over the next three years and expand upon the scientific program in order to maximize participation and interaction, scientific content, and dissemination and training efforts. |
