“…Still, the real impact of this disease on Private Healthcare Insurers is underestimated due to the complexity of measuring the disease´s costs. Besides that, only a low percent of the overall burden of illness was attributable to the direct medical costs of treating depression itself (Razzouk, 2016). An analysis of the depression economic burden in the United States demonstrated that indirect expenses, such as reduced work productivity, accounted for the clear majority (~60%) of the costs (Wang et al, 2003).…”

“…CAPS and inpatient treatment unit costs were estimated from the São Paulo accounting database applying a top-down approach (Becker and Razzouk, 2018). Furthermore, we used the Brazilian Prices of Drugs Database (Banco de Preços de Medicamentos) to estimate the unit costs per pill in the São Paulo State (Razzouk et al, 2015), as a high variation in the acquisition cost by local municipalities has been described (Razzouk, 2017). Resource use in the EIP arm was derived from published literature (Randall et al, 2015), administrative data and discussion with local experts.…”

“…Los costos de los antipsicóticos varían ampliamente en el mercado. La variabilidad del costo (relación entre el costo mínimo y máximo) de la risperidona en la India es de 1 a 16 y de la olanzapina de 1 a 12; la variabilidad de estos fármacos en Brasil es de 1 a 35 000 y de 1 a 79, respectivamente (10,11) . El alto costo que pueden alcanzar los antipsicóticos genera un menor acceso a estas medicinas y la posibilidad de que los pacientes no puedan continuar con el tratamiento.…”
