The Centre for Health Economics Research and Evaluation (CHERE) was
established in 1991. CHERE is a centre of excellence in health economics and
health services research. It is a joint Centre of the Faculties of Business
and Nursing, Midwifery and Health at the University of Technology, Sydney, in
collaboration with Central Sydney Area Health Service. It was established as a
UTS Centre in February, 2002. The Centre aims to contribute to the development
and application of health economics and health services research through
research, teaching and policy support. CHERE’s research program encompasses
both the theory and application of health economics. The main theoretical
research theme pursues valuing benefits, including understanding what
individuals value from health and health care, how such values should be
measured, and exploring the social values attached to these benefits. The
applied research focuses on economic and the appraisal of new programs or new
ways of delivering and/or funding services. CHERE’s teaching includes
introducing clinicians, health services managers, public health professionals
and others to health economic principles. Training programs aim to develop
practical skills in health economics and health services research. Policy
support is provided at all levels of the health care system by undertaking
commissioned projects, through the provision of formal and informal advice as
well as participation in working parties and committees.
