About
Eric Rome is a leading health economist whose work centers on the cost-effectiveness of advanced surgical technologies, particularly in thoracic oncology. His most cited study, a 2021 cost-effectiveness analysis of robotic-assisted lobectomy for non-small cell lung cancer, has garnered 28 citations and stands as a pivotal contribution to the field. Rome’s research rigorously evaluates whether the high costs of robotic surgery are justified by improved patient outcomes, providing crucial evidence for hospital administrators and policymakers navigating resource allocation. By combining detailed clinical data with sophisticated economic modeling, he offers a clear framework for balancing innovation with fiscal responsibility. His work has directly informed clinical guidelines and sparked debate on value-based care in cancer treatment. Rome’s analyses are essential reading for surgeons, health policy students, and anyone interested in the intersection of technology, cost, and patient well-being.
