Abstract
This special issue includes a selection of papers presented at the 16th European Health Economics Workshop held in Toulouse on the 28-29 May 2015. The special issue focuses on microeconomic theoretical models in health economics, with a strong emphasis on applications of industrial organization, contract theory and public economics. The common aim is to address and answer key policy questions through rigorous and formal analyses.
The papers address specific issues and interventions in relation to nutritional policies, regulation of the pharmaceutical industry, long-term care and the role of incentive schemes in stimulating healthcare provision. Both normative and positive approaches are employed.
