Estimates represent the difference between the specified scenario and the status quo scenario; for each scenario, private expenditure averted was estimated as the difference between the estimated private expenditure in the index year and the estimated private expenditure in the baseline year (2018).
Quintiles were defined at the beginning of the analysis period (2018) and the population was considered as a cohort between 2018 and 2030—ie, individuals maintained their quintiles during the period of interest (2018–30).
