Abstract
Health Economics is an unfriendly topic for most clinical cardiologists. However, if we want to bridge the gap between patients and healthcare management, it is essential that decisions regarding new drugs, procedures, and technologies involve clinical professionals. Our unique position allows us to provide valuable insights and expertise in our fields and bring added value for decision making in the health system as a whole. Equipping clinical cardiologists with basic knowledge and tools in Health Economics and Economic Evaluation (such as cost-effectiveness or cost-utility studies) is crucial to develop studies that accurately reflect the clinical impact of diseases, both for patients and the healthcare system. By getting involved, clinicians can play a vital role in shaping the future of healthcare systems and influencing the allocation of (usually scarce) resources to ensure optimal care for our patients.
