Table 4.

Incremental cost-effectiveness ratios per DALY averted from PCV13 introduction in alternative scenarios to the base case.

Direct & indirect population effects
PCV13 (with serotype replacement and herd protection) vs. no PCV
Societal perspective Health system perspective
Base case
 Base case Cost-saving $52



Cost
 Scenario 1: Vaccine cost using maximum AMC tail price (US$3.50) Cost-saving $58
 Scenario 2: Vaccine cost using PAHO price (US$15.68) $390 $460
 Scenario 3: Hospitalization cost using WHO-CHOICE Cost-saving $17



Incidence & case fatality risk (Meningitis, Pneumonia, NPNM IPD)
 Scenario 4: Lower bound from regional estimates for Western Pacific [43] Cost-saving $180
 Scenario 5: Upper bound from regional estimates for Western Pacific [43] Cost-saving $10
