PANEL 1:IPC cost, health impact, and cost-effectiveness Integrated Prevention Campaigns: Evidence for Impact and Efficiency, Global Potential, and Sustainability James G. Kahn, MD, MPH UCSF
Goal of analysis • Estimate the cost, health effects, and cost-effectiveness of a diarrhea, malaria and HIV IPC as implemented in Lurambi district, Western Kenya, September 2008.
Methods: Sources Program costs: • Empirical for campaign as implemented, plus modeled “Scaled-Up Replication” (SUR) Health effects(deaths and DALYs averted): • Published trials and meta-analyses, and disease incidence modeling Costs of medical care incurred/averted: • Published studies and databases
Results: Program Costs • As implemented: $42 • SUR: $32
Results: Health Effects Deaths and DALYs averted by intervention component:
Results: Costs Costs averted/(added) by intervention component:
Results: Cost-effectiveness • Unadjusted campaign cost: $32,000 • Net cost (savings):($16,015) • Cost per DALY averted: Net savings
Conclusion • A mass, rapidly implemented IPC for HIV, malaria and diarrhea in a Western Kenya setting provides substantial health benefits in terms of deaths and DALYs averted • The campaign also appears economically attractive (cost-saving).
