Abstract

This study synthesizes methods for measuring, valuing, and incorporating patient and caregiver productivity costs by integrating evidence from peer-reviewed literature and international Health Technology Assessment guidance. We identify twenty-five instruments, but only three capture the information required for valuation using the human capital or friction cost approach and summarize current recommendations for measuring and valuing paid and unpaid labor across jurisdictions.
