Cost-effectiveness Analysis and Health System Planning: Problems with Where we are Today • Insufficient attention to the instruments of policy • Insufficient attention to the platforms that carry interventions • Insufficient attention to non-incremental interventions (focus is on ICER)
Cost-effectiveness Analysis and Health System Planning: Problems with Where we are Today • Insufficient attention to urgency of intervention • Failure to consider financial risk protection • Limited consideration of health system capacity constraints
Instruments of Policy • IEC • Taxes and subsidies • Regulation and legislation • Direct finance (number and location of providers) • R&D
Intervention Delivery Platforms • Primary Care • Hospitals • Public Health • Inter-sectoral • Support
District Hospital Medical and pediatric service TB treatment; AMI and stroke treatment, IMCI for severe cases, complicate malaria Surgical, obstetric and trauma service Delivery, trauma, other ‘essential” surgical services
Specialized Hospitals • Multi-specialty referral hospital As for district hospital but also a broad range of more complex cases • Single specialty hospitals Psychiatric, TB, cancer, obstetric fistula repair
Support Platforms Platform Examples 1. Disease, risk factor and demographic NHANES; DHS; Censuses; Sentinal surveillance surveillance systems 2. Education and training of health Medical, dental and nursing schools; professionals in-service training 3. Monitoring and evaluation of Effective coverage surveys Interventions, expenditures and (commencing); appropriate household consequences of ill-health surveys 4. R&D Basic scientific to operational research; product development and evaluation 5.Insurance systems Mandatory health insurance in almost all countries of OECD
Analyzing the burden of a health problem to identify control and research needs
Temporal Character of Interventions Temporal Character Examples • 1. Urgent • 2. Moderately time sensitive • 3. Not time sensitive • 4. Ongoing • C-Section for obstructed labor • Malaria treatment • AMI treatment • Immunization • TB Treatment • Elective surgery (cataract replacement; obstetric fibula repair) • Dietary and other behavioral change • Medical management of AIDS, vascular risk, diabetes, psychiatric disorders
The Focus of CEA Note: The shaded box represents the domain of traditional cost-effectiveness analysis.
The Focus of CEA, II Locus of Intervention Inside Health System Outside Health System • Water supply • Food transfers • Sanitation • Basic education • Carbon tax Health Consequence of intervention • ‘Nuisance’ health problems (eg. seasonal flu) • Cosmetic procedures • Enhanced functioning • (mental, physical, sexual) • Contraception General GBA Non-Health Note: The shaded box represents the domain of traditional cost-effectiveness analysis.
