Table 4.

Incremental costs, incremental health-related quality of life (QALYs), and cost-effectiveness analysis

Cost-effectiveness results (all costs)

Results in Table 4 include imputed data and differ from Table 3 because of imputation and discounting 2nd-year costs and QALYs by 5%.

a

Incremental, intervention − control.

b

Less costly, more QALYs.
