Hereditary hemochromatosis screening: effect of mutation penetrance and prevalence on cost-effectiveness of testing algorithms.

Clinical genetics - 1 Jan 2007

Gagné G, Reinharz D, Laflamme N, Adams P C, Rousseau F

Abstract excerpt

Screening for hereditary hemochromatosis, although largely discussed, is not yet implemented in clinical practice. We evaluated the cost-effectiveness of 165 hemochromatosis population-screening algorithms involving two or three of several screening tests by developing a computer program that simulates all possible screening scenarios. Input data comprised government estimates of health services data and costs...
