The webinar will discuss the newly developed instrument Costing Implementation Strategies (Cost-IS), which is a standardised tool to collect data on the costs associated with implementation strategies for healthcare interventions and produces reliable implementation cost estimations. The talk will outline why there is a need for the instrument, and how the instrument was developed. A worked example will show how it can be used. The presentation will conclude with the implications, limitations and future directions of the instrument.
Presenter - Thomasina Donovan
Thomasina has over 6 years’ experience as a health researcher. She is a Research Fellow and in the final stages of her PhD candidature in health economics and implementation science at the Australian Centre for Health Services Innovation (AusHSI) at in the School of Public Health and Social Work, Faculty of Health at the Queensland University of Technology (QUT). Her PhD titled Methods for collecting and estimating the cost of implementation strategies in healthcare settings, combined the knowledge from health economics and implementation science to develop an implementation costing instrument called Cost-IS. She has expertise in conducting qualitative interviews, thematic analysis, e-Delphi panels, and systematic reviews. She has achieved a First Class Honours in epigenetics at the University of Canberra. She previously applied her epigenetics expertise in the context of oncology, immunology, and exercise science.
