TABLE I -.
Example of the format of the CEA/CUA results, without infringement of the confidentiality clauses of MEAs
Expected values | Reference treatment [Ref] | New medicine [N] | Incremental difference
[Δ=N-Ref] |
ICER |
---|---|---|---|---|
Total cost | €94,940.59 | €369,078.52 | € 200,000.00 | – |
Life years | 2 | 10 | 8 | € 25,000 |
QALYs | 1.5 | 8 | 6.5 | € 30,769 |
The table reports fancy numbers, and it does not reflect the output from the case study model.
CEA = cost-effectiveness analysis; CUA = cost-utility analysis; ICER = incremental cost-effectiveness ratio; MEA = managed-entry agreement; QALY = quality-adjusted life year.
