Value Sets for EQ-5D-5L by Nancy Devlin

This open access book provides an essential guide to value sets for anyone working with EQ-5D-5L data. In addition to providing a concise, generic way of describing health, the EQ-5D-5L facilitates the valuation of health and health improvements through its value sets, which play a pivotal role in Health Technology Assessment across the world.
