In this paper we summarise the discussion in the session about how to assess the economics of hypertension control programmes. The paper is structured around the four main themes discussed in the session: the methods of economic evaluation, the estimation of costs in an economic evaluation, the estimation of effects in an economic evaluation, and the relationship between economic evaluation and policy-making.
