- Professor of Health Economics, Flinders University
Economics is concerned with maximising the value of scarce resources, aiming to improve decisions that influence the allocation of resources. Governments and publicly funded institutions (such as public hospitals) make a lot of those decisions. As a health economist, my primary objective is to support governments and health service organisations make more informed decisions in order to minimise the opportunity costs of spending on health care.
