| Research Abstract |
We investigated the topics about cost-utility analyses for health technology assessment (HTA) by the procedure which visits on HTA organizations, or has reviewed literature. In addition, we assessed the differences of utility weights for a variety of diseases. We found that EQ-5D is used most, and the study of validity and reliability about direct methods for utility weights are continuing. Our results indicate the productive future for EQ-5D and HUI Japanese version use.
