Reader
Summary
Dr Anil Gumber joined Sheffield Hallam University in 2012 as Principal Health Economist. Over the last three decades Anil has been actively involved in research issues on health and wellbeing. He has undertaken several consultation projects funded by many organisations including the World Bank and the NHS. Anil was previously Senior Research Fellow at Warwick Medical School, and Senior Economist at the National Council of Applied Economic Research, New Delhi. He was awarded Ph.D. in economics from Gujarat University, Ahmedabad and post-doctoral research fellowship from Harvard School of Public Health, Boston. He attained the Postgraduate Certificate in Health Economics and Health Policy from University of Birmingham in 2010.
About
Over the last 30 years Anil has been actively involved in research issues on health and wellbeing. He undertook both national and international level policy and advocacy research studies in areas including, public health and nutrition, population diversity and inequalities in health, economic evaluation of health interventions, health care financing and insurance in developing countries. He has undertaken several consultation projects funded by the World Bank, UNDP, UNICEF, UNFPA, IDRC, WHO, DfID, ESRC and NHS. Anil also has over one hundred research papers and reports to his credit.
Whilst studying at the Harvard School of Public Health, Boston, Anil worked on three research papers. The focus was on equity and efficiency issues in the Indian health care system, the cost and burden of injury in developing countries and poverty and health and nutrition relationships among rural households in Bangladesh. During 1996 Anil was a member of the Working Group on Health Financing and Insurance for the Ninth Five Year Plan set-up by the Planning Commission and Ministry of Health and Family Welfare in India. He undertook a critical review of the health expenditure and suggested new financing mechanism to meet the Plan Objectives. Being a member of the National Sample Survey Organisation of Government of India for 52nd Round on Social Consumption, Anil contributed in improving various concepts. These included measurement of morbidity and health care, utilization and expenditure and definitions and procedures used in the collection of NSS household survey data. Anil has also collaborated on economic and financial analysis of several health and nutrition projects, including an evaluation of a rural community health project in India for the IDRC, Canada and a private health expenditure review in Indian states of Andhra Pradesh and West Bengal for the DFID.
Before coming to the UK in 2001, Anil was working as a Health Specialist in one of the premier research institutes and a policy think-tank nationally, at the National Council of Applied Economic Research, in New Delhi. There he coordinated the critical policy and advocacy projects in the area of human development and health sector. These included:
- impact of economic reforms on health and poverty as well as on employment and wages
- an evaluation of the world’s largest outreach child health and nutrition programme (Integrated Child Development Programme)
- health insurance for the poor
- benefit-incidence analyses of government spending in the primary, secondary and tertiary health care services
- cost-benefit analysis of maternal and child health services
Two studies relating to community health insurance and external assistance to health sector were exclusively undertaken for the WHO Commission on Macroeconomics and Health.
In the UK, Anil joined the UK Centre for Evidence is Ethnicity Health and Diversity at the University of Warwick as a senior research fellow. At the Centre, Anil was performing a dual role by continuing policy relevant research in ‘ethnicity and health’ and undertaking economic analyses of internationally relevant clinical trials in three areas: diabetes, whiplash injury and cancer funded by the NHS, NIH and other UK bodies. Anil also monitored and developed key trial materials and language translation targeting better participation of South Asian patients in clinical trials and health surveys as well as contributing to improving sensitivity and specificity of name analysis software. Some of his completed research dealt with ethnicity and cancer screening uptake (funded by the Department of Health), occupational health and work place injuries among ethnic minorities (funded by the Health and Safety Executive), ethnic communication in health services (funded by the Department of Health), and racial inequality in health (funded by the Home Office). Anil undertook detailed analysis of NHS routine clinical data for bowel, breast and cervical screening programmes to compute screening uptake rate and cancer detection rates by ethnic and socio-economically deprived groups.
Anil also received a special distinction at the International Health Economics Association (iHEA) Vth World Congress on Investing in Health held in Barcelona July 10-13, 2005. Out of over 500 poster presentations at the deliberation his research work on ‘Pattern and Determinants of Health Care Use and Expenditures at the End-of-Life in India’ won the best poster award.
Besides providing the critical health economics inputs to HSCR research projects, Anil is currently working on three grant applications:
- impact of childhood disadvantage on income
- health and well-being in adulthood improving physical activity in South Asian diabetic and CVD patients
- understanding and measuring health and happiness in a diverse population
economic evaluation of clinical trials
ethnicity, health and wellbeing inequalities
cost and benefit analysis of health programmes
econometric analysis of longitudinal and cross-sectional data
health development and financing in India
community health insurance in South Asia and health and poverty issues in South Asia
