Choice modelling techniques have established themselves as a key analysis tool in health economics and have been used to understand patient and practitioner preferences across a wide variety of settings. A key interest in recent years has been the incorporation of ever more flexible levels of heterogeneity in preferences across individual decision makers, and in particular a growing interest in the potential role that attitudes and perceptions might play in healthcare choices. At the same time however, many applications simply apply these new tools without then investigating the resulting richness in the results. This paper not only presents a novel application of hybrid choice modelling in health, by looking at preferences for outpatient parenteral intravenous antimicrobial therapy (OPAT), but also carefully explores the findings in terms of sources of heterogeneity, disentangling the role of attitudes from other heterogeneity. We find that a large share of the heterogeneity can be attributed to two key underlying attitudinal constructs, related to the general attitude towards hospitals and whether responsibility for healthcare should lie with the patient or the practitioner. Especially the latter accounts for more than 60% of the overall heterogeneity in preferences for the type of treatment. These results may help design services that are suitable and appealing for a wide variety of patients as well as providing some insights into how nudging of attitudes and perceptions could help drive patients towards safer and more cost-effective treatment options.

表征异质性和态度在患者偏爱中的作用:门诊肠胃外静脉抗微生物治疗(OPAT)服务偏爱的案例研究

选择建模技术已经确立了自己在健康经济学中的关键分析工具的地位,并已被用于了解患者和从业者在各种环境中的偏好。近年来,一个关键的兴趣是在各个决策者的偏好中纳入了更加灵活的异质性水平,尤其是人们越来越关注态度和看法在医疗保健选择中可能发挥的作用。但是,与此同时,许多应用程序仅应用这些新工具,而无需调查结果的丰富程度。本文不仅研究了门诊肠胃外静脉注射抗菌药物治疗(OPAT)的偏好,还提出了混合选择模型在健康方面的新应用,但也要从异质性的来源来仔细探究发现,将态度的作用与其他异质性区分开来。我们发现,大部分异质性可归因于两个关键的基本态度构造,这与对医院的一般态度以及医疗保健责任应由患者还是从业者有关。尤其是后者,在处理类型方面更占总体异质性的60%以上。这些结果可以帮助设计出适合各种患者的吸引力的服务,并提供一些见解,了解如何轻描淡写地对待态度和看法可以帮助患者寻求更安全,更具成本效益的治疗选择。将态度的作用与其他异质性区分开来。我们发现,大部分异质性可归因于两个关键的基本态度构造,这与对医院的一般态度以及医疗保健责任应由患者还是从业者有关。尤其是后者,在处理类型方面更占总体异质性的60%以上。这些结果可以帮助设计出适合各种患者的吸引力的服务,并提供一些见解,了解如何轻描淡写地对待态度和看法可以帮助患者寻求更安全,更具成本效益的治疗选择。将态度的作用与其他异质性区分开来。我们发现,大部分异质性可归因于两个关键的基本态度构造,这与对医院的一般态度以及医疗保健责任应由患者还是从业者有关。尤其是后者,在处理类型方面更占总体异质性的60%以上。这些结果可以帮助设计出适合各种患者的吸引力的服务,并提供一些见解,了解如何轻描淡写地对待态度和看法可以帮助患者寻求更安全,更具成本效益的治疗选择。与对医院的一般态度以及医疗保健责任应由患者还是从业者有关。尤其是后者,在处理类型方面更占总体异质性的60%以上。这些结果可以帮助设计出适合各种患者的吸引力的服务,并提供一些见解,了解如何轻描淡写地对待态度和看法可以帮助患者寻求更安全,更具成本效益的治疗选择。与对医院的一般态度以及医疗保健责任应由患者还是从业者有关。尤其是后者,在处理类型方面更占总体异质性的60%以上。这些结果可以帮助设计出适合各种患者的吸引力的服务,并提供一些见解,了解如何轻描淡写地对待态度和看法可以帮助患者寻求更安全,更具成本效益的治疗选择。
