Scenario analyses: total costs ($ millions)

Scenario With PCV IIP Without PCV IIP Incremental
Base case 15,072 16,832 − 1760
Average IPD incidence from 2001 to 2004 used as baseline 15,072 16,668 − 1596
2001 IPD incidence used as baseline 15,072 16,771 − 1700
2004 IPD incidence used as baseline 15,072 16,583 − 1511
Including AOM for 5–9 year olds 16,572 19,182 − 2610
No incremental AOM incidence reduction after 2008 15,072 15,643 − 571
Only 25% of pneumonia and 50% of AOM decline attributed to PCV IIP 10,686 12,055 − 1370
Vaccination rate set to 90% for all years 15,176 16,832 − 1656
IPD incidence based on weighted average of Quebec and Ontario data 15,316 17,125 − 1809
Exclusion of indirect costs 11,001 11,771 − 770

Costs presented in 2018 Canadian dollars. Base case assumed the following: maximum historical IPD incidence (per 100,000) from 2001 to 2004 for the setting without PCV IIP (35.97 for < 5 years; 3.22 for 5–17 years; 4.29 for 18–49 years; 13.12 for 50–64 years; 33.72 for 65+ years); 80% vaccination rate for all years; IPD incidence from TIBDN only; incremental reduction in AOM incidence throughout the PCV era; 50% of pneumonia decline change and 100% of AOM decline due to PCV IIP introduction; indirect costs considered

For the scenario in which we assume the 2001 incidence for IPD, the incidence rates per age group were: 31.46 for < 5 years; 3.09 for 5–17 years; 4.00 for 18–49 years; 13.12 for 50–64 years; 30.70 for 65+ years

For the scenario in which we assume 2004 incidence for IPD, the incidence rates per age group were: 25.9 for < 5 years; 1.52 for 5–17 years; 3.48 for 18–49 years; 11.53 for 50–64 years; 26.72 for 65 + years

For the scenario in which we assume the average IPD incidence (per 100,000) from 2001 to 2004, the incidence rates were: 31.46 for < 5 years; 2.33 for 5–17 years; 3.78 for 18–49 years; 10.95 for 50–64 years; 30.33 for 65+ years
