Abstract
Economic evaluations of health interventions pose a particular challenge for reporting. There is also a need to
consolidate and update existing guidelines and promote their use in a user friendly manner. The Consolidated
Health Economic Evaluation Reporting Standards (CHEERS) statement is an attempt to consolidate and update
previous health economic evaluation guidelines efforts into one current, useful reporting guidance. The primary
audiences for the CHEERS statement are researchers reporting economic evaluations and the editors and peer
reviewers assessing them for publication.
The need for new reporting guidance was identified by a survey of medical editors. A list of possible items based
on a systematic review was created. A two round, modified Delphi panel consisting of representatives from
academia, clinical practice, industry, government, and the editorial community was conducted. Out of 44 candidate
items, 24 items and accompanying recommendations were developed. The recommendations are contained in a
user friendly, 24 item checklist. A copy of the statement, accompanying checklist, and this report can be found on
the ISPOR Health Economic Evaluations Publication Guidelines Task Force website (www.ispor.org/TaskForces/
EconomicPubGuidelines.asp).
We hope CHEERS will lead to better reporting, and ultimately, better health decisions. To facilitate dissemination
and uptake, the CHEERS statement is being co-published across 10 health economics and medical journals. We
encourage other journals and groups, to endorse CHEERS. The author team plans to review the checklist for an
update in five years.
