Lifetime Cost-Effectiveness of Guided iCBT Followed by Face-To-Face CBT, Cost–Utility Analysis With Sequential Approach: Stepped-Care Model
| Strategy | Mean Costs, $a | Mean QALYs | Incremental Costs, $a,b | Incremental QALYsc | ICER, $/QALY Gaineda |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Guided iCBT followed by group CBT | 280,498.29 | 18.300 | – | – | – |
| Guided iCBT followed by individual CBT | 280,538.11 | 18.336 | 39.82 | 0.036 | 1,098 |
| Usual care | 283,651.49 | 18.090 | 3,113.37 | −0.246 | Dominated |
Abbreviations: CBT, cognitive behavioural therapy; iCBT, internet-delivered CBT; ICER, incremental cost-effectiveness ratio; QALY, quality-adjusted life-year.
a
All costs in 2018 Canadian dollars. Costs and QALYs discounted at 1.5% rate.
b
Incremental cost = average cost (strategy of guided CBT followed by individual CBT) – average cost (strategy of guided CBT followed by group CBT).
c
Incremental effect = average effect (strategy of guided CBT followed by individual CBT) – average effect (strategy of guided CBT followed by group CBT).
