About
Sajesh K. Veettil is a health economist and outcomes researcher whose work centers on the economic evaluation of surgical innovations, particularly in oncology. His major contributions lie in systematically assessing the cost-effectiveness of robotic-assisted surgeries, with a landmark 2025 systematic review and meta-analysis on robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) providing critical evidence for healthcare decision-makers. This study, already garnering 8 citations, demonstrates that in high-income countries, RARP is generally cost-effective compared to open and laparoscopic approaches, offering vital guidance for resource allocation in urological cancer care. Veettil’s research bridges the gap between clinical efficacy and economic viability, ensuring that surgical advancements translate into affordable, high-value patient outcomes. His work has significant implications for health policy and hospital budgeting, making him a key voice in evidence-based surgical economics. With a growing citation impact, Veettil continues to shape how healthcare systems evaluate and adopt expensive technologies, ultimately aiming to improve patient access while managing costs. His rigorous methodologies and practical insights make his research indispensable for clinicians, policymakers, and health economists alike.
