Aligning Clinical Treatment Strategies with Value and Equity to Improve Health Care Performance

The US continues to rank #1/11 in health care spending and #11/11 in healthcare performance. We consistently pay more for less health. The Goshua Lab fuses state-of-the-art in quantitative decision science with clinical expertise to address this value lost, with a particular focus on rare hematologic-oncologic diseases. Our analytic lens includes both conventional value (i.e., cost-benefit) and equity-informed analyses to inform stakeholders’ decision-making on resource allocation in health care.

Conference Recognitions: ASH Oral and ASH Press Program Selection (1 of 2 in 2022)

Practical impact: For treatment funding decisions, even if gene therapy is cost-ineffective by conventional CEA standards, it is an equitable therapy per DCEA standards in the United States for patients with sickle cell disease.

Cost-effectiveness of second-line therapies in adults with chronic immune thrombocytopenia

Goshua G, Sinha P, Kunst N, Pischel L, Lee AI, Cuker A

Conference Recognitions: ASH Oral, ASH Abstract Achievement Award (2021 ASH Trainee Recipient: Dr. Goshua), Best of ASH for North America, Best of ASH (HTRS), 2022 American Journal of Hematology Young Investigator Award Paper of the Year [Finalist]

Practical impact: Fills gap in the 2019 ASH ITP Guidelines and shows that the theoretical concerns about splenectomy tripartite risks that led to its decreased utilization in the United States across 2000-2020 do not outweigh treatment benefit. In addition, for patients whose values and preferences align with surgery, splenectomy-early strategies are the cost-effective strategies.
