Economic evaluation analysis comprises a set of tools that are used to assess alternative health technologies, including assistive technologies. Health technology assessment is a set of concepts that are used to evaluate technologies and to make policy recommendations. This article presents an exposition of each of these areas: the tools that are used to conduct an economic evaluation, how these tools fit in to the larger policy-related analysis of health technology assessment, and how these tools can be used in the assistive technology field.
