Cost-Benefit Handbook for Public Health

The Cost-Benefit Handbook for Public Health provides a structured approach to evaluating the economic value of health interventions. It helps policymakers compare the costs of implementing programs—like vaccinations or screenings—to the benefits, such as improved health outcomes and reduced healthcare expenses. By quantifying both costs and benefits, the handbook aids in making informed decisions about which public health strategies offer the best return on investment, ensuring resources are used efficiently to maximize health benefits for the community.
