Economic evaluation of an employee health screening program for Hepatitis C virus in Pakistan
Our findings support that employee screening for HCV is cost-effective in high-prevalence areas such as Pakistan and a wise investment of health resources. The findings also point to programmatic improvements that could maximize the health benefits and improve the cost-effectiveness of other similar programs.
