Health economics and evaluation

We specialise in health economics and real-world evaluation, supporting healthcare systems in making informed, impactful decisions. Our evaluations provide critical insights into the effectiveness, efficiency, and value of healthcare services and innovations.

At Unity Insights, we help organisations understand the true value of innovations, services, and care pathways. Through robust health economic analysis and real-world evaluation, we generate clear, decision-ready evidence to support adoption, scale, and investment decisions. Whether you need to demonstrate cost-effectiveness, assess return on investment, or understand real-world impact, our work provides transparent, policy-aligned evidence that resonates with commissioners, providers, innovators, and system leaders.

Why choose Unity Insights for health economics and real-world evaluations?

Unity Insights brings vast experience applying economic and analytical methods across diverse healthcare settings. We help organisations articulate the value of their interventions in ways that are credible, practical and aligned to system expectations. All our work is grounded in:

  • Methodological rigour – applying recognised frameworks, high-quality datasets, and performing best-practice modelling approaches
  • Real-world relevance – delivering findings that can be confidently applied in real-world operational and strategic contexts
  • Clarity and usability – communicating economic evidence in ways that resonate with clinical, financial, and executive audiences

We work collaboratively with commissioners, providers, innovators, and research partners to ensure all analysis reflects real‑world context and organisational priorities. Projects are tailored to your needs, ranging from rapid indicative modelling to fully comprehensive economic evaluations.

Our services

Health economic analysis

We conduct health economic assessments that help organisations understand the benefits, costs, and consequences of new interventions or service models. This includes:

  • Cost-benefit and ROI analysis – measures both costs and benefits in monetary terms to estimate net present value (NPV) and return on investment (ROI)
  • Cost‑effectiveness analysis – compares the costs of interventions relative to outcomes measured in natural health units, such as life-years gained or cases prevented
  • Cost-utility analysis – assessing value using utility‑based outcomes such as QALYs to support comparisons across different conditions, pathways, and interventions
  • Cost-consequence analysis – presenting multiple costs and outcomes side‑by‑side to support transparent, flexible decision making
  • Budget impact modelling – estimating financial implications of adopting a new intervention from the payer’s perspective to assess affordability
  • Breakeven analysis – identifying when an intervention becomes cost‑neutral, helping organisations understand required volumes, uptake, or outcome thresholds to justify investment
  • Scenario modelling and sensitivity analysis – testing risk, uncertainty, and the implications of different implementation choices

Our models are transparent, adaptable, and designed to support business cases, funding bids, procurement decisions, and innovation adoption.

Real-world evaluation

 We design and deliver real-world evaluations that provide decision-critical evidence on whether interventions should continue, adapt, scale, or stop. Our evaluations go beyond reporting outcomes to explain how and why change is happening in complex, real-world systems.

We generate evidence that supports accountability, learning, and improvement across commissioning, delivery, and system leadership.
