The cost of interventions to increase influenza vaccination: a systematic review.
This study sought to systematically review economic evaluations of healthcare-based quality improvement interventions for improving influenza vaccination uptake among general populations and healthcare workers. The investigators concluded that quality improvement interventions for influenza vaccination involved per-enrollee costs that were similar to the cost of the vaccine itself ($11.78-$36.08/dose). They suggested that based on limited available evidence in general populations, quality improvement interventions may be cost saving to cost effective for the health system.
