Table 1.

Summary of the per person lifetime costs* and percentage of cases and non-cases genetically tested for each strategy (ordered by increasing cost of strategy)

Strategy Total undiscounted costs* Total discounted costs* Incremental costs versus no testing strategy* % who are genetically tested
With monogenic diabetes Without monogenic diabetes
Clinical Prediction Model Testing† £133 200 £53 600 −£100 92 3
Biomarker Testing £133 300 £53 600 −£100 92 8
Ad Hoc Testing £133 500 £53 700 0 6 <1
No Testing £133 600 £53 700 NA 0 0
All Testing £133 700 £54 000 £300 92 92

*Rounded to nearest £100.

†Probability thresholds chosen to maximise costs saved versus No Testing are 12.6% for type 1 versus monogenic diabetes and 75.5% for type 2 versus monogenic diabetes.
