The 1,7-malaria reactive community-based testing and response (1,7-mRCTR) approach in Tanzania: a cost-effectiveness analysis
Our analysis demonstrates that the 1,7-mRCTR intervention appears to be cost-effective under a willingness-to-pay threshold of 417 USD per DALY averted, showing that modified RACD strategies can provide value for money in moderate-to-high transmission settings.
