“…Results of the current study are consistent with previous studies that established greater work productivity loss for current smokers than non-smokers. 9 , 10 , 46 – 48 This productivity loss is attributed to both absenteeism and presenteeism due to smoking and smoking-related illnesses. The current study showed that across each of the four cessation groups, presenteeism costs constituted more than 75% of total productivity losses compared with those due to absenteeism.…”

Objective:This study quantified differences in indirect costs due to decreased work productivity between current and former smokers. Former smokers were further categorized by number of years since quitting to assess corresponding differences.Methods:Data on employed individuals were obtained from the 2013 US National Health and Wellness Survey (NHWS; N = 75,000). Indirect costs were calculated for current smokers and former smokers from weekly wages based on age and sex.Results:The annual total indirect costs for current smokers were $1327.53, $1560.18, and $1839.87 higher than for those who quit 0 to 4 years, 5 to 10 years, and more than or equal to 11 years prior, respectively. There were no significant differences in mean total indirect costs between the former smoker groups.Conclusions:Current smokers showed significantly higher total annual indirect costs compared with former smokers, independently of the number of years since quitting smoking.

“…In Spain, according to the 12th Survey on Alcohol and other Drugs (EDADES), 34% of people between 15 and 64 years old admit to smoking on a daily basis in the past month, which represents an increased rate compared with rates (30 and 31%) from previous surveys (2011, 2013 and 2015) [3]. Smoking is associated with higher healthcare costs, with an estimation of €864.64/year in smokers versus €474.71/ year in non-smokers according to a study by the Spanish Society of Pulmonology and Thoracic Surgery [4].…”

Background Smoking in one of the most serious public health problems. It is well known that it constitutes a major risk factor for chronic diseases and the leading cause of preventable death worldwide. Due to high prevalence of smokers, new cost-effective strategies seeking to increase smoking cessation rates are needed. Methods We performed a Markov model-based cost-effectiveness analysis comparing two treatments: health advice provided by general practitioners and nurses in primary care, and health advice reinforced by sending motivational text messages to smokers’ mobile phones. A Markov model was used in which smokers transitioned between three mutually exclusive health states (smoker, former smoker and dead) after 6-month cycles. We calculated the cost-effectiveness ratio associated with the sending of motivational messages. Health care and society perspectives (separately) was adopted. Costs taken into account were direct health care costs and direct health care cost and costs for lost productivity, respectively. Additionally, deterministic sensitivity analysis was performed modifying the probability of smoking cessation with each option. Results Sending of text messages as a tool to support health advice was found to be cost-effective as it was associated with increases in costs of €7.4 and €1,327 per QALY gained (ICUR) for men and women respectively from a healthcare perspective, significantly far from the published cost-effectiveness threshold. From a societal perspective, the combined programmed was dominant. Conclusions Sending text messages is a cost-effective approach. These findings support the implantation of the combined program across primary care health centres.

“…With this methodology, a single wage, often the mean or the minimum, is applied to all analyzed patients. Interestingly, a study published by Suarez-Bonel et al (4), demonstrated that smokers and non-smokers were on sick leave for an average of 11 days and 7 days a year, respectively. All the parameters entered into the model are listed in supplementary table 1.…”

A Markov model was used in which patients transitioned between three mutually exclusive health states (smoker, former smoker and dead) after 6-month cycles. We calculated the cost-effectiveness ratio associated with the sending of motivational messages throughout a patient’s life. Health care and society perspectives (separately) was adopted. Costs taken into account were direct health care costs and direct health care cost and costsfor lost productivity, respectively.Additionally, deterministic sensitivity analysis was performed modifying the probability of smoking cessation with each option. Results:Sending of text messages as a tool to support health advice was found to be cost-effective as it was associated with increases in costs of €7.4 and €1,327 per QALY gained for men and women respectively from a healthcare perspective, significantly far from the published cost-effectiveness threshold.
