- The incremental cost-effectiveness of combination therapy with pegylated interferon for men ranged from $26 000 to $64 000 per QALY for genotype 1 and from $10 000 to $28 000 per QALY for other genotypes; and for women ranged from $32 000 to $90 000 for genotype 1 and from $12 000 to $42 000 for other genotypes. Because the benefits of treatment were realized largely in the form of improvements in health-related quality of life, rather than prolonged survivorship, cost-effectiveness ratios expressed as dollars per year of life were substantially higher. ...

- Outcome measures included life expectancy, life expectancy adjusted for the quality of life, lifetime direct medical costs, and cost effectiveness in dollars per quality-adjusted year of life gained. ...
- On the basis of additional data from other major studies, the cost-effectiveness ratio for three-drug therapy ranged from $13,000 to $23,000 per quality-adjusted year of life gained. The initial CD4 cell count and drug costs were the most important determinants of costs, clinical benefits, and cost effectiveness. ...

- bmj.com
- Cost effectiveness analysis in health care: contraindications .
- In economic evaluation of healthcare interventions, the dominant practice is to calculate an incremental cost effectiveness ratio, usually based on the comparison of a new intervention against current practice. ...
- 2-4 Among the reasons given for this are that opportunities for reducing costs while maintaining quality still arise, and that cost effectiveness analyses do not take all factors into account. ...
- Achieving the same result more cheaplya success for economicsrepresents a classic cost effectiveness approach. ... We contend that, beyond the classic approach, many studies labelled as cost effectiveness analyses of health care are not really that at all. ... Thus, there are contraindications to the use of cost effectiveness analysis in health care, and an alternative economic approach is required. ...
- Then we make the case that lack of adherence to such principles, through current practice of reducing everything to incremental cost effectiveness ratios, leads to contraindications. ...
- The theoretical basis of the use of incremental cost effectiveness ratios needs re-examination These ratios have little to do with cost effectiveness, as they often imply a need for more resources, thus raising questions of broader resource allocation Lack of recognition of this allocation aspect is likely to lead to disappointment with economic evaluation generally Authors making economic evaluations should pay more attention to the type of efficiency question being considered and its implications for opportunity cost; they should not make recommendations if resource allocation issues are involved Guidelines for economic evaluations should be revised to take account of concepts of efficiency .
- By deriving estimates of the costs and the effectiveness of a new procedure, and relating them to the status quo, it should be possible to determine whether the procedure is less costly and at least as effective as the status quo, in which case it would be judged to be better (more technically efficient); or more costly and more effective, in which case a judgment has to be made about whether the extra cost is worth the gains achieved (a question of allocative efficiencyif the number of patients treated remains the same, more resources would have to be allocated to this area of care at the expense of another group of patients).
- Our main point is that cost effectiveness analysis alone cannot handle questions of allocative efficiency, although it is currently being asked to do so, but there are economic evaluation approaches that can. Data on effectiveness and cost can be brought together in a matrix, combining potential impacts on effectiveness and cost resulting from a change in care (figure). The optimum position is cell A1; costs are saved and greater effectiveness achieved relative to existing care. ... In C1, a judgment is required as to whether the more costly new procedure is worthwhile in terms of additional effectiveness (the allocative efficiency question). ... Cell C1 is where alteplase falls, along with the results of many other "cost effectiveness analyses. ...
