Introduction & Definition[edit | edit source]
The Quality-Adjusted Life Year (QALY) is a measure of the value and benefit of health outcomes.
Health is definied as a function of two components:
1. length of life
2. quality of life
The QALY is an attempt to combine these two attributes into a single figure/number.
