How are patient preferences elicited?

In this lecture, David Mott provides valuable insights into integrating patient values and preferences in healthcare. 

In the realm of health economics, patient preferences play a crucial role. These preferences refer to individuals’ choices about healthcare and medical treatment. When making decisions, patients consider their beliefs, values, and experiences. Healthcare providers often employ various techniques to elicit patient preferences, such as surveys, focus groups, and interviews.

David explores three critical areas:

  1. Methodologies used to elicit quantitative patient preference data
  2. The typical stage of a quantitative patient preference study
  3. The type of insights that can be obtained from quantitative patient preference data

David Mott

David's research interests broadly focus on the valuation of healthcare benefits. This includes describing health and valuing health states for the generation of quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) as well as the valuation and incorporation of broader outcomes (e.g. non-health outcomes or well-being) into the health technology assessment process. David has methodological expertise in stated preference methodologies such as discrete choice experiments (DCEs), time trade-off (TTO) and contingent valuation (CV) and has used these methods to answer a wide range of different research questions. He has an ongoing research interest in the use of patient preference information in healthcare decision-making (see Mott, 2018), stemming from his doctoral research, and has spoken on issue panels at leading international health economics conferences on this subject
