SMDM Webinar: An Introduction to Net Benefit Regression for Real-World Cost-Effectiveness Analysis: What if your data are censored?

April 30, 2026

12:00 PM

About this Event

In this session we review the main points in Chen et al . “A Tutorial on Net Benefit Regression for Real-World Cost-Effectiveness Analysis Using Censored Data from Randomized or Observational Studies.” Med Decis Making. 2024 Apr;44(3):239-251. The talk illustrates the steps involved in carrying out cost-effectiveness analysis using net benefit regression with possibly censored data by providing step-by-step guidance and code applied to a dataset. We demonstrate the importance of new methods by showing that naïve methods for handling censoring can lead to biased cost-effectiveness results.
