Published in: Health and quality of life outcomes (2022)
We have developed an experimental value set for the DLQI, which could prospectively be used for quantifying the quality-adjusted life years impact of dermatological treatments and serve as a basis for cost-effectiveness analyses. We suggest that, after validation of our main results through confirmatory studies, population-specific DLQI value sets could be developed and used for conducting cost-effectiveness analyses and developing financing guidelines in dermatological care.
