Cost benefit analysis of health impact assessment - final report

The report sets out the findings of the cost benefit evaluation of Health Impact Assessment (HIA). York Health Economics Consortium followed 16 HIAs looking at the process, impact, outcomes and costs and benefits of HIA. The findings show the benefits outweigh the costs, although it was a small sample. The report will be subject to further consideration and comments are welcome. _____________________________________________
