About
Haitham Tuffaha is a health economist and implementation scientist whose research centers on the economic evaluation of health technologies, cancer survivorship care, and the integration of digital health innovations into rural healthcare settings. His major contributions lie in developing and applying decision-analytic models to assess the cost-effectiveness of novel interventions, particularly in oncology. Notably, his work on virtual prostate cancer survivorship care models in rural Australia—exemplified by a multi-methods pilot study (2024, 2 citations)—addresses critical access disparities by evaluating the feasibility and acceptability of telehealth solutions for men with localized prostate cancer. Tuffaha’s research has informed policy and practice, with his broader portfolio of highly cited papers (accumulating hundreds of citations) shaping guidelines for resource allocation in cancer care. His achievements include leading health technology assessments for national agencies and advancing methods for incorporating patient preferences into economic evaluations. Through rigorous, patient-centered research, Tuffaha continues to bridge gaps between evidence generation and real-world implementation, empowering equitable healthcare delivery in underserved populations.
