The Quality Adjusted Life Year, or QALY, was invented at the UK’s University of York by Prof Alan Williams in the 1970s. Some currently engaged in the bitter trench warfare of America’s drug pricing debate think it’s high time for another British invasion, and the US should fully embrace the UK’s use of QALYs.

In this Vital Health Podcast, we have a discussion with William Smith, a Senior Fellow at the Pioneer Institute, about his recently published book, “Rationing Medicine: Threats from European Cost-Effectiveness Models to America’s Seniors and other Vulnerable Populations.” William makes a strong case that the use of QALY for cost-effectiveness assessments within Medicare and Medicaid would violate several key provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act.
