Health and economic impact of the aPS intervention (universal ART initiation)§

Percent of population receiving APS 12.5%

Health impacts (total population)

HIV infections averted 3.7% (1.9–5.6)
HIV-related deaths averted 2.6% (1.6–3.6%)
DALYs averted 1.4% (0.1–2.0)

Health impacts (among aPS partners only)

HIV infections averted 2.6% (−1.3–6.0%)
HIV-related deaths averted 13.7% (10.5–16.3%)
DALYs averted 8.9% (6.7–10.9%)

5-year incremental aPS intervention costs (per 500,000 adults)

Program scenario (millions) 3.5 (3.2–3.8)
Task-shifting scenario (millions) 2.5 (2.2–2.8)

Cost-effectiveness

ICER program scenario ($/DALY averted) $1,094 ($823–1,619)
Percent of program ICERs under Kenya’s per capita GDP out of 200 simulations 80%
ICER task shifting scenario ($/DALY averted) $833 ($628–1,224)
Percent of task-shifting ICERs under Kenya’s per capita GDP out of 200 simulations 93%
§

Values in parentheses represent 90% model variability across 200 simulations (range). Strategies under the threshold of Kenya’s GDP per capita ($1,368) are considered very cost-effective.

Costs and DALYs are discounted at 3% annually. Costs are in 2014 USD.
