Initial feedback

I think this page is too abstract to convince us to use a particular technique. A simple example would help immensely. Then explain how that example could be extended to use in practice. Is this proposal for one-off decisions (e.g., which of two procedures should be carried out for some illness), or for more long-term elicitation that can be used for future decisions? Some of the time it seems you are talking about patients in general, and sometimes elicitation of the preferences for the particular patient for who the decision is about. Which one are you proposing? An example would be useful to clear this up.

Thanks for the references to EQ-5D, SF-6D, and HUI, but are these really "methods used for utility assessment of patients"? They didn't seem to ask patients.

"The ultimate goal of this project is to measure and quantify the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) or health utility of individuals." No the aim of the project is to make or recommend a decision.

Ultimately, I'm not sure what method you are proposing. It was good to provide the landscape, but when a team has to develop a system (see the November Assignment description), they need to choose one to start with. I don't think the team would know where to start.
