How the sausage is made
For each participant:
What is the change in outcome? What are the costs of achieving this outcome?
Question: How much is an improved
- utcome “worth”?
Putting the two together: Willingness to pay (WTP) and Net Benefit (NB) The crucial question: Does the intervention lead to a higher Net Benefit?
19/06/2014 10
NB = (WTP x outcome) - cost
A simple example
Participant Change in BDI Costs WTP Net benefit Peter +5 £150 £0 (0*5)-150=-150 Paul
- 3
£0 £0 (0*-3)-0=0 Mary +8 £250 £0 (0*8)-250=-250

Simple example cont.
Participant Change in BDI Costs WTP Net benefit Peter +5 £150 £50 (50*5)-150=100 Paul

Quick recap:
For each participant:
What is the change in outcome? What are the costs of achieving this outcome?
Willingness to pay and Net Benefit Does the intervention lead to a higher Net Benefit?
Calculate probability that Net Benefit is higher in the intervention group (confidence!) Plot probability against WTP

Conclusions
Intervention relatively cheap at £161 No associated increase in support costs Likely to be cost-effective in terms of reducing self-confidence problems and BDI, but willingness-to-pay not firmly established Good option to engage people who receive little in terms of other support, despite high level of distress An accessible, acceptable, (cost-)effective
- ption to include within IAPT
