Cost-effectiveness

Estimates are sourced in their native units and shown for comparison, not as literal costs. Sources use different frameworks — see each card for what it represents and how it was derived.

Modeled benchmarks ($/DALY)Tier A · standardized benchmark
South-East Asia$168.00View source →
Eastern sub-Saharan Africa$447.00View source →

WHO-CHOICE estimates are modeled at 50% population coverage, compared against the null set (no intervention) under generalized cost-effectiveness analysis. View WHO-CHOICE methodology →

$/DALY sources differ by 2.7x - a material difference.

Modeled regional estimates — not realized delivery costs.

Varied methods — not directly comparable.

Tier-A sources diverge 72× — WHO-CHOICE $308 vs dcp3_extract $22000. Shown side by side, never merged into one figure.

Delivery readiness is not currently shown. The country health-system view — workforce density, financing mix, service coverage — is being rebuilt as part of the scenario layer. The underlying indicators remain in the country pages.
The figures above are published benchmarks. To build an investment case for your own context — local unit costs, target population, coverage assumptions — model it directly. Select a country first to carry its context into the model.
