DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The American Society of Health Economists (ASHEcon) is a professional organization dedicated to promoting excellence in health economics research in the U.S. The objective of the ASHEcon conferences is to provide a forum for presenting emerging ideas, empirical results and methodological advances in health economics research and for facilitating the development of the next generation of health economics scholars. More specifically, the goal is to facilitate a large community of health economists to present and discuss high quality papers representing new and innovative research in important areas of health economics. The ultimate outcomes include better research on critical health topics, including aging related topics; generation of new research ideas; development of opportunities for students, junior researchers, women and minorities; dissemination of cutting-edge ideas; and a better knowledge base for private and public policies. Plenary speakers, scientific sessions, papers, and posters will address the substantive area of aging through several topics. These include: quality of care; health insurance and health care reform; comparative effectiveness; Medicare (e.g., physician and hospital payment reforms, Medicare Advantage, and Part Ds); ethnic/racial and gender disparities in treatments and outcomes; retirement and health; VA services; health and health behaviors across the life-span; long-term care; preventive services for elderly; and diffusion of technology. Pre-conference sessions will explore topics such as new developments in econometric and other methods, and developments in government data availability. Beginning with the conference at University of Wisconsin in 2006 and then the Duke conference in 2008, ASHEcon's biennial conference has quickly become established as the premier health economics conference in the United States. NIA, through a conference grant, was instrumental in helping the 2008 conference include high quality sessions directly related to aging and a plenary speaker (Mark McClellan) who spoke on health care reform, aging, and policy related issues. Funding for the next three conferences and the intervening planning years will build on our strong record of accomplishment. Research presented at the ASHEcon conferences will help advance NIA's, and more generally, NIH's research agenda. Many of the health economists who will attend are grantees of NIA and, more broadly, NIH; others may become interested in these topics after hearing presentations and discussions. Further, NIA, NIH, and ASHEcon share many goals such as training and developing the careers of students and junior faculty including women and minorities. The third biennial ASHEcon conference will be held June 20-23, 2010, at Cornell University in Ithaca NY. The fourth conference will be at the University of Minnesota in 2012 and the fifth is to be held in 2014 at a university TBD. We anticipate about 700 participants at the third conference. The 2006 conference had 500 attendees and the 2008 conference had 650 attendees. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The objective of the biennial conferences of the American Society of Health Economists (ASHEcon) is to provide a forum for emerging ideas and empirical results of health economics research. Topics to be covered in the three proposed conferences include: quality of care; health insurance and health care reform; comparative effectiveness; Medicare (e.g., physician and hospital payment reforms, Medicare Advantage, and Part Ds); ethnic/racial and gender disparities in treatments and outcomes; retirement and health; VA services; health and health behaviors across the ages; long-term care, preventive services for elderly; and diffusion of technology, among others. The next three biennial ASHEcon conferences will be held June 2010 at Cornell University, summer 2012 at University of Minnesota, and summer 2014 at a university TBD.

描述（由申请人提供）：美国卫生经济学家学会（Ashecon）是一个专业的组织，致力于在美国促进卓越的健康经济学研究，而Ashecon会议的目标是为展示新兴的思想，经验结果和方法论方面的卫生经济学研究和下一代健康经济学经济学发展的发展提供论坛。更具体地说，目的是促进庞大的卫生经济学家社区，介绍和讨论代表健康经济学重要领域的新和创新研究的高质量论文。最终结果包括更好地研究关键健康主题，包括与衰老相关的主题；产生新的研究思想；为学生，初级研究人员，妇女和少数民族开发机会；传播前沿思想；以及更好的私人和公共政策知识基础。 全体演讲者，科学会议，论文和海报将通过几个主题解决衰老的实质领域。这些包括：护理质量；健康保险和医疗保健改革；比较有效性； Medicare（例如，医师和医院支付改革，Medicare Advantage和DS）；治疗和结果中的种族/种族和性别差异；退休与健康； VA服务；整个生命中的健康和健康行为；长期护理；老年人的预防服务；和技术的扩散。会议前会议将探讨主题，例如计量经济学和其他方法的新发展以及政府数据可用性的发展。 从2006年在威斯康星大学举行的会议开始，然后在2008年举行的杜克大学会议开始，Ashecon的双年展会议已迅速成为美国首屈一指的健康经济学会议。 NIA通过会议赠款在帮助2008年会议的帮助中发挥了作用，包括与老年人和全体议长（Mark McClellan）直接相关的高质量会议，他们谈到了医疗保健改革，老龄化和与政策相关的问题。在接下来的三个会议上和中间的计划年度的资金将基于我们的成就记录。在Ashecon会议上提出的研究将有助于推进NIA，更普遍地是NIH的研究议程。许多将参加的卫生经济学家是NIA的受赠人，更广泛地是NIH。在听取演讲和讨论后，其他人可能会对这些主题感兴趣。此外，NIA，NIH和Ashecon都有许多目标，例如培训和发展学生和初级教师的职业，包括妇女和少数民族。 第三次双年展Ashecon会议将于2010年6月20日至23日在纽约州伊萨卡大学的康奈尔大学举行。第四次会议将于2012年在明尼苏达大学举行，第五次会议将于2014年在大学TBD举行。我们预计第三次会议上约有700名参与者。 2006年会议有500名与会者，2008年会议有650名与会者。 公共卫生相关性：美国卫生经济学家学会（Ashecon）两年一次会议的目标是为新兴思想和卫生经济学研究的经验结果提供论坛。拟议的三个会议中要涵盖的主题包括：护理质量；健康保险和医疗保健改革；比较有效性； Medicare（例如，医师和医院支付改革，Medicare Advantage和DS）；治疗和结果中的种族/种族和性别差异；退休与健康； VA服务；各个年龄段的健康和健康行为；长期护理，老年人的预防服务；以及技术的扩散等。接下来的三个双年展Ashecon会议将于2010年6月在康奈尔大学，2012年夏季在明尼苏达大学和2014年夏季在大学结核病。
