*Advanced Simulation Methods 3 day course: Tues 2nd - Thurs 4th October
2018 *
*Background*
Within healthcare decision making, cohort Markov models and decision trees
are frequently used. However, in some situations these are not the most
appropriate modelling methods. This course provides an in-depth review of
individual-level simulation rationale, techniques and methodologies with a
particular focus on discrete event simulation and its practical application
to inform healthcare decision making. From the fundamentals of a basic
model the course will progress to modelling complex systems, verification
and interpreting output, as well as exploring alternative software options.
*What does the course deliver?*
This course aims to provide participants with the skills required to be
able to undertake simulation projects to a professional level. It will be
both theoretically-based and practically-based, with the use of the Simul8
software package. It will cover the use of discrete-event simulation to
assess the impact of alternative options within a local system with
resource constraints and the use of patient-level simulation for health
economic modelling.
*Who will benefit from this course?*
This course is primarily for health economic modellers who want to broaden
their skill base, as well as healthcare decision makers who would like to
understand more about patient-level simulation and when it might be useful.
*Participants must have a basic level of knowledge of health economic
modelling in order to follow the course.*
*Course content*
The course will consist of a mixture of presentations and practical use of
Simul8, both following the lecturer and within individual exercises.
*BOOKINGS WILL AUTOMATICALLY CLOSE AT 11PM ON THURSDAY, 27TH SEPTEMBER 2018*
