About
Dr. Jenessa Ho-Wrigley is a health economist and outcomes researcher whose work focuses on the economic evaluation of surgical innovations in oncology, particularly for urological cancers. Her most cited study, a cost-utility analysis comparing robotic-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) to open radical cystectomy (ORC) for bladder cancer in the UK, represents a significant contribution to evidence-based surgical decision-making. This landmark paper (6 citations) rigorously modeled the long-term costs and quality-adjusted life years associated with each approach, providing crucial data for healthcare systems weighing the high upfront costs of robotic surgery against potential reductions in complications and mortality. By integrating clinical outcomes with economic modeling, Ho-Wrigley’s research directly informs National Health Service resource allocation and surgical guidelines. Her work exemplifies the growing importance of health technology assessment in shaping cancer care, demonstrating that value-based healthcare requires not just clinical efficacy but also cost-effectiveness. For students and researchers, her studies offer a model for translating complex clinical data into actionable policy recommendations.
