Simon Eckermann is Senior Professor of Health Economics in the School of Health and Society at the University of Wollongong. He was previously Health Economics Professor at the Flinders University Centre for Clinical Change and Health Care Research and Senior Health Economist at the NHMRC Clinical Trial Centre. He is a CI on competitive research grants totalling more than A$30 million since 2005 and actively sits on and undertakes guideline revision and health economics educational activities for National decision bodies including the Pharmaceutical Benefits Advisory Committee Economic Sub-Committee (PBAC ESC 2005-2010), National Palliative Care Trials Scientific Committee (2006-2014), Prostheses List Advisory Committee (2012-2014), Victorian Cancer Agency (2015-) and Food Standards ANZ (2017-) as well as various NHMRC grant review committees and the Editorial Board of Medical Decision Making (2018-).
His original research and collaborations have established missing links between optimal decision making in research, reimbursement and regulation in practice and are extensively published in the highest impact health economics and decision making Journals, and clinical and policy journals with his applied research. Related principles and methods have been taught by Professor Eckermann to more than 600 students from a wide range of clinical, research, policy and health technology assessment backgrounds since 2000, with the ‘Health Economics from Theory to Practice’ course he established with Professor Willan in 2005 rated by participants as the best course of its type internationally since being run at Oxford University in 2009.
Senior Professor Eckermann leads international health economic research for robust evaluation in trial and practice setting with net benefit correspondence theorem methods he developed and optimal research design with value of Information methods. These methods have increasingly been extensively published in major International Journals, but most importantly in the past 5 years brought together into the Health Economics from Theory to Practice text (Eckermann 2017) where across 13 chapters these methods have been integrated and extended to allow optimal joint decision making across joint research, reimbursement and regulatory decision making.Year | Title |
