Presenting at iHEA

Just presented at #iHEA2025 on how guiding patients with triage tools can improve emergency care decisions under uncertainty. Great fun sharing our findings—thanks to my @hi-prix.bsky.social & @hche-uhh.bsky.social colleagues for joining and supporting! #healthliteracy #healtheconomics #EDuse #Bali

And here is the #ihea2025 @hi-prix.bsky.social team.

The HI-PRIX project tackles one of healthcare’s biggest challenges: ensuring access to innovative, high-priced technologies without breaking the system. Join us at #IHEA2025 as we present insights from the project. @hi-prix.bsky.social

Indeed, it's a very large conference.

After some very interesting pre-conference sessions the #ihea2025 officially starts with the opening reception.

I'm looking forward to discussing solutions for emergency room overutilisation in the session on Inequity in Access to Health Care Services at #2025IHEA

Herzlichen Glückwunsch! Geht das denn noch bei den ganzen verklebten Bildschirmen?

„Morbi-RSA setzt keinen Anreiz, langfristig in Gesundheit zu investieren“ Warum langfristige Investitionen in die Gesundheit im Morbi-RSA abgebildet werden sollten und wie dies gelingen kann, dazu hat ZEW-Gesundheitsökonom und FAU-Professor Simon Reif klare Vorstellungen. I...

Mein heutiger Start in den Tag: Kaffee und kluge Gedanken von @simonreif.eu im @tspbackground.bsky.social

Does timing matter? The role of health information shocks in measuring willingness to pay - The European Journal of Health Economics Objectives The optimal point in time to measure willingness-to-pay (WTP) remains unclear. We investigated the role of health information shocks (HIS) in individuals’ WTP, analyzing the extent to which...

The paper “Does timing matter? The role of health information shocks in measuring willingness to pay”, with Carolin Brinkmann, @snb.bsky.social, and @tomstargardt.bsky.social, is now in print at the European Journal of Health Economics and can be found here:

Bei Fluglinien dauert eine Entschädigung selbst bei Stornierungen des Fluges Monate und man braucht einen Anwalt, damit überhaupt etwas passiert.

Ich habe gestern Abend für meine Eltern einen Fahrgastrechte Antrag bei @bahn.de gestellt, weil sie eine Stunde Verspätung mit dem ICE hatten. Super bequem in der App, 2 Minuten Arbeit. Der Antrag wurde HEUTE abschließend (und positiv für sie) bearbeitet. Das ist wirklich top!

I can highly recommend working with @arthurattema.bsky.social and @wernerbrouwer.bsky.social

Schade, dass die Ausgabe Mal wieder nicht rechtzeitig im Briefkasten war. Morgen fliegen wir in den Urlaub, wäre spannend gewesen ...

I'm looking forward to presenting the results of my study on reducing avoidable utilization of emergency departments at the #ihea2025 . Thank you for the invitation and opportunity!

I hope to see many @hche-uhh.bsky.social @uni-hamburg.de colleagues there 😎

I can't unlearn this. In my mind it's now an OrcID.

Thank you, I will try out that one!

Is there any open source survey platform that is as convenient as qualtrics? I like qualtrics a lot but it’s just too expensive. Lime survey ux is terrible, any advice is welcome #surveys #academia

My current research, which I will present at the BEHnet workshop will show (among other things) that the reference points people take differ by country e.g. respondents in Germany took the health of others around them as a reference point, whereas people in Italy use their health in the past.

We found that out of seven potential reference points, subjective well-being was also associated with how current income compared to respondents' needs and progression over time, and for health, especially with how current health compared to what respondents felt they deserved.

Which reference points people choose for health or income was explored in our first paper on the topic. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/hec.441...

Reference points are important for evaluating outcomes such as our health after surgery or the salary offered by a new job. If the reference point (e.g. what we had before) is not met, life satisfaction is affected negatively.

I look forward to presenting my research on domain-specific reference points for life satisfaction at the 8th Workshop in Behavioral and Experimental Health Economics in Vienna. (https://social-econ-psych.univie.ac.at/workshop-2023/
