Cost-Effectiveness Analysis of a Universal Infant Immunization Program with Meningococcal C Conjugate Vaccine in Brazil  Patricia Coelho de Soarez, MPH, PhD, Ana Marli C.

3 Fig. 2 Results of a sensitivity analysis according to the parameter variation. The values for parameters are presented in Table 1. The Word Health Organization threshold value for cost-effectiveness suggests that interventions costing less than three gross domestic products (GDPs) per capita for each disability-adjusted life-year averted is a cost-effective intervention, and interventions costing les than one GDP per capita for each DALY averted is a very cost-effective intervention [32]. The 2006 Brazilian GDP per capita is R$12,688. Value in Health  , DOI: ( /j.jval ) Copyright © 2011 International Society for Pharmacoeconomics and Outcomes Research (ISPOR) Terms and Conditions

4 Fig. 3 The impact of the cost per vaccine dose on the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio per life-year saved from society's perspective. The Word Health Organization threshold value for cost-effectiveness suggests that an intervention costing less than three gross domestic products (GDPs) per capita for each disability-adjusted life-year averted is a cost-effective intervention, and an intervention costing less than one GDP per capita for each disability-adjusted life-year averted is a very cost-effective intervention [32]. The 2006 Brazilian GDP per capita is R$12,688. Value in Health  , DOI: ( /j.jval ) Copyright © 2011 International Society for Pharmacoeconomics and Outcomes Research (ISPOR) Terms and Conditions
