Cost Effectiveness of HIV Screening in HAART EraStudy Background • Markov decision model - Used to estimate health benefits and costs of performing voluntary HIV screening in health care settings • Model factors - Voluntary HIV screening of a population - Natural history of HIV and AIDS - Costs and health consequences of transmission of HIV - Costs and health consequences of HAART Source: Sanders GD, et al. N Engl J Med. 2005;352:570-85.
