Consolidated Health Economic Evaluation Reporting Standards 2022 (CHEERS 2022) Statement: Updated Reporting Guidance for Health Economic Evaluations

🤖 Plain-English Summary

Health economic evaluations are comparative analyses of alternative courses of action in terms of their costs and consequences. However, we anticipate familiarity with reporting requirements will be useful for analysts when planning studies.

🔑 Key Findings

• The Consolidated Health Economic Evaluation Reporting Standards (CHEERS) statement, published in 2013, was created to ensure health economic evaluations are identifiable, interpretable, and useful for decision making.
• It was intended as guidance to help authors report accurately which health interventions were being compared and in what context, how the evaluation was undertaken, what the findings were, and other details that may aid readers and reviewers in interpretation and use of the study.
• The new CHEERS 2022 statement replaces previous CHEERS reporting guidance.
