Integrating equity and productivity in health evaluation
提出了一个统一框架，将公平和生产力同时纳入健康结果评价，扩展了传统的QALYs和PALYs方法，为评估影响健康和劳动能力的干预措施提供了理论基础。
This paper develops a unified framework for evaluating health outcomes that jointly incorporates equity and productivity. Extending beyond traditional QALYs, PALYs, and the more recent PQALYs, we introduce a broader class of evaluation functions that integrate equity- and productivity-sensitive conditions. By imposing several normative criteria, including independence from measurement scales and Pigou-Dalton transfer principles, we obtain tractable power-form representations. In balancing equity and efficiency, the framework provides a coherent foundation for assessing interventions in contexts where both health and productive capacity are at stake.
