The Danish Centre for Health Economics (DaCHE) at University of Southern Denmark will host the 42nd Nordic Health Economists’ Study Group (NHESG) meeting on 16-18 August 2023. The conference will be held at University of Southern Denmark’s campus in Odense.
The meeting aims to bring together researchers who are working in the area of health economics and to promote continuous development of health economics as a sub-discipline of economics. Papers on all topics within health economics are welcome. Submitted papers representing various stages of the research process are expected. The conference language is English.
The usual NHESG procedural rules will apply: The discussant – and not the author – will present the paper, including both a summary and a discussion. Further information on the procedural rules can be found here: NHESG. Each paper is allocated 40 minutes. All participants will have the opportunity to download submitted papers. Access to papers will be restricted to registered participants. To submit an abstract send an email with a title and an abstract including the objectives, data and methods, results and conclusions (up to 500 words) to NHESG2023@sdu.dk.
