Cost effectiveness of secondary vs tertiary prevention for post-menopausal osteoporosis

Dirk Mueller () and Afschin Gandjour

Applied Health Economics and Health Policy, 2011, vol. 9, issue 4, 259-273

Abstract: Compared with TP, a strategy based on SP/TP appears to be more expensive but more effective in each age group. Given that cost effectiveness seems acceptable, allocation of resources to SP/TP to decrease post-menopausal osteoporotic fracture risk may be justified. Copyright Adis Data Information BV 2011
