Health economic design for evaluating cost, cost-effectiveness and simulation analyses in the HEALing Communities Study	2020-10-03		.txt	text/plain	6104	289	45	BACKGROUND: The HEALing Communities Study (HCS) is designed to implement and evaluate the Communities That HEAL (CTH) intervention, a conceptually driven framework to assist communities in selecting and adopting evidence-based practices to reduce opioid overdose deaths. The objectives of the HES are to estimate the economic costs to communities of implementing and sustaining CTH; estimate broader societal costs associated with CTH; estimate the cost-effectiveness of CTH for overdose deaths avoided; and use simulation modeling to evaluate the shortand long-term health and economic impact of CTH, including future overdose deaths avoided and quality-adjusted life years saved, and to develop a simulation policy tool for communities that seek to implement CTH or a similar community intervention. The HCS HES will use simulation modeling to evaluate the short-and long-term health and economic impacts of the CTH intervention and to develop a policy tool for communities that want to implement CTH.	./cache/cord-291645-63ftephy.txt	./txt/cord-291645-63ftephy.txt
