Sickness absence in the working age population
Economic inactivity rate in the UK reached 22.2% in 2024, driven largely by increased long-term sickness, and exceeds those reported in comparable high-income countries. Sickness absence remains a major challenge, imposing substantial costs on individuals and society. This study aimed to assess sickness absence rates and associated economic output losses in primary care for working-age adults in England. This was a population-based retrospective …
A Scoping Review of the Costs, Consequences, and Wider Impacts of Residential Care Home Closures in a UK Context
Background. Between 2015 and 2020, 1,578 care homes in the UK closed, displacing nearly 50,000 older and disabled people with very significant care and support needs. It is widely thought that relocation can have a significant impact on the health and well-being of older people. Yet, evidence is limited due to sensitivity and logistical difficulties with data collection. This study aimed to review the published literature in order to (i) identify…

The ABA intervention for improving breastfeeding initiation and continuation
The UK has low breastfeeding rates, with socioeconomic disparities. The Assets-based feeding help Before and After birth (ABA) intervention was designed to be inclusive and improve infant feeding behaviours. ABA is underpinned by the behaviour change wheel and offers an assets-based approach focusing on positive capabilities of individuals and communities, including use of a Genogram. This study aimed to investigate feasibility of intervention de…
Sensitivity to scale of willingness‐to‐pay within the context of menorrhagia
OBJECTIVES: Willingness-to-pay (WTP) provides a broad assessment of well-being, capturing benefits beyond health. However, the validity of the approach has been questioned and the evidence relating to the sensitivity of WTP to changes in health status is mixed. Using menorrhagia (heavy menstrual bleeding) as a case study, this exploratory study assesses the sensitivity to scale of WTP to change in health status as measured by a condition-specific…
Applications of the Capability Approach in the Health Field
The primary aims of this review are to document capability applications in the health field and to explore the objectives and decision-rules of studies measuring capability more broadly. Relevant studies are identified using a literature search strategy known as "comprehensive pearl growing". All studies with a primary focus on health are assessed individually, whilst a summary narrative analysis of the full review examines the objectives of capa…

The validity and responsiveness of the Icecap-A capability-well-being measure in women with irritative lower urinary tract symptoms
The ICECAP-A is a valid and responsive measure capturing broad emotional and practical impacts of urinary symptoms on women's well-being and could be considered for use in economic evaluations in this context

Welfare Exit, Marriage, and Welfare Recidivism
Public involvement in health care priority setting
Background Public involvement in health care decision making and priority setting in the UK is being promoted by recent policy initiatives. In 1993, the British Medical Association called for public consultation where rationing of services was to be undertaken. The approach to priority setting advocated by many health economists is the maximization of quality adjusted life years (QALYs). Typically, for a particular health care programme, the QALY…
