Cost Effectiveness of Prevention HIVViral HepatitisTBSTDsSchool Health 1991-2006, averted 350,000 HIV infections; saved ≥$125 billion Screening of persons born 1945-1965 reduces HCV- related deaths by 121,000 at $35,700 per quality- adjusted life year gained (QALY) Est. 200,000 TB cases prevented since 1993. Saved $3.4 billion Reductions in gonorrhea and syphilis1990- 2003 resulted in $6.5 billion in estimated savings. Every dollar invested in school-based HIV, STI, and pregnancy prevention saves $2.65 in medical and social costs Single case of HIV infection costs $402,000 in care Hepatitis B virus screening of persons at increased risk is cost effective at $29,230 per QALY Costs of treatment for multi-drug resistant TB is $134,000 per case; and for XDR-TB, $430,000 per case Chlamydia screening in sexually active young women costs from $2,500–$37,000 per QALY

HIV Prevention Key Issues Treatment saves lives and prevents transmission Data to care Preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP)
12
Hepatitis C Prevention Key Issues New treatments much more effective Expensive, but cost effective over time Increase in new cases, especially among young people who inject drugs Public health opportunity
13
Tuberculosis Key Issues Addressing LTBI will hasten progress toward TB elimination in United States LTBI last vestige of TB in United States New blood test screening available for LTBI New, shorter treatment available for LTBI Rifapentine and INH once a week for 12 weeks
