Extracted text: use the HUI3 scoring system for the health utilities index. Assume the average patient has a baseline HUI3 state of (1,1,1,3,1,3,2,4) and a 1-year follow-up HUI3 health state of (1,1,1,2,1,2,2,2) after participating in a RCT. How many QALYS does the average person gain? (For simplicity, just calculate the difference). i) Use the information from above to answer the following questions. Suppose the cost of treatment was $40,000. What is the cost per QALY gained for the treatment? Does the treatment appear cost-effective? Explain.
