Definitely, You are right and It is emphasized that, all guidelines need to employ Economic Evaluations in CPGs. We can find thousands of sources for it. For example: NICE, NIHR, SIGN in Scotland, The Cochrane Library websites, etc. An interesting material for this query is the latest versions of NICE guidelines, in which cost effectiveness analysis results were attached to all CPGs.
