[Evaluation of a program: cost/benefit analysis]. 1989

A Cabrera de León, and C Domínguez Nogueira, and F Huertas Jiménez, and A Carretero Gutiérrez de Terán

The authors evaluate a program of peripheral obtention of analytical samples during a 37-month period in the Granada province, which it has been able to extend to 40.44% of the population. An analysis of the cost/benefit ratio and the efficacy in the implantation of the program (77.78%) during that period was carried out. The results were compared with those achieved with this program in other Spanish provinces. Finally, an indicator was proposed (expected mean number of users per 1000 inhabitants and month) which might permit to know in advance the effectiveness of the implantation of the Program in a given area.

D003362 Cost-Benefit Analysis A method of comparing the cost of a program with its expected benefits in dollars (or other currency). The benefit-to-cost ratio is a measure of total return expected per unit of money spent. This analysis generally excludes consideration of factors that are not measured ultimately in economic terms. In contrast a cost effectiveness in general compares cost with qualitative outcomes.
