Figure 4. Cost of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Management From 2018 to 2030 Under Status Quo vs World Health Organization (WHO) HCV Elimination Scenario.

Figure 4.

The elimination scenario was defined as annual diagnosis rate of at least 900 000 cases per year and annual treatment rate of at least 700 000 persons per year. A, Comparison of annual cost of HCV management under status quo vs WHO elimination scenario using different testing algorithms (as defined in the Table). B, Total cost of HCV management from 2018 to 2030 under status quo and different testing algorithms that result in HCV elimination by 2030. Testing algorithms T3 through T7 were associated with cost savings compared with the cost under status quo. The T4 algorithm provided the lowest cost of HCV management ($5.6 billion) and was associated with $2.6 billion in cost savings compared with the cost of status quo ($8.2 billion) (triangles).
