Markov Model
A state-transition model in which patients move between discrete health states over time according to transition probabilities.
Definition
A Markov model divides the patient population into a set of mutually exclusive and exhaustive health states. At each model cycle, patients may remain in their current state or transition to another state, with probabilities defined by a transition matrix. The model accumulates costs and outcomes over multiple cycles. Markov models are commonly used in chronic disease modelling.
