Abstract:Objective
This study aims to estimate the cost-effectiveness of lung cancer (LC), cardiovascular disease (CVD), and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), the so-called “big-3 diseases”, combining screening and identify the optimal target screening population in China.
Methods
A stage shift microsimulation model constructed and different screening strategies were set. Cost, quality-adjusted life years (QALYs), incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICER) and net health benefits (NHB) under different s… Show more
