Abstract

Background and aim Costing is a crucial component of health economic evaluations, but there is a wide variation in the approaches of calculating costs in the German health care system. This series of articles aims to propose unified costing methods for the different health care sectors while the current article is addressing overarching problems across all sectors. Methods The working group Standardized Costing within the committee Economic Evaluation of the German Society of Health Economics (dggö) discussed the current problems in the context of costing for health economic evaluation and developed agreed, unified costing approaches for the different health care sectors. The group consisted of researchers from universities and decision-makers in the German health care system and developed the recommendations at three personal meetings and additional telephone conferences. Preliminary results were presented at the 11th annual meeting of the dggö. Results The current paper presents the recommendations regarding perspective, price-resources framework, study types, cost components, data sources, adjustment of cost data over time or cross-country, and uncertainty in cost calculations. Additionally, the general structure of the four following articles on health care sector-specific costing is presented.
