This volume serves to present to interested readers recent
developments in microsimulation and public policy. It strings
together: selected papers presented at the International
Microsimulation Conference on Population Ageing and Health:
Modelling Our Future held in Canberra, Australia in December 2003;
and recent thinking in the field of microsimulation as reflected in
special contributions by some of the leading experts in the field;
description of 20 key models relating to fiscal and health human
resource issues concerning sustainability of health systems around
the globe. The focus of the conference was on practical uses of
microsimulation in government policy although theoretical
underpinnings also received considerable attention. The volume
covers a diversity of subjects: health status; pharmacare and
health expenditure issues; financing, caring and health delivery;
health human resources; and data challenges. To provide an insight
into actual models used around the world, the book also has a
section devoted to the challenges associated with building of
microsimulation models and their current use in the formulation of
public policy. The book presents some innovative analysis on public
policy issues contained in some of the conference papers along with
the methodological advancements made in the microsimulation field.
It contains invaluable information that aims to help shape the
current and future public policy debates in this area. The authors
are established leaders in the field, and it is international in
scope.
