We examined HCW time-use patterns in Malawi using data from a time-…

ObjectivesModelling approaches that consider system-wide delivery platforms rather than single diseases are increasingly recognized as crucial for the economic evaluation of policy and investment choices and can be instrumental in forward-looking policy formulation. This paper develops a costing approach tailored to one such model, the Thanzi La Onse (TLO) model of Malawis healthcare system, to estimate healthcare…

However, the joint impact of these services across multiple health domains and the health system resources required to deliver them are not fully understood. MethodsAn integrated epidemiological and health system model was used to assess the impact of HTM programmes in Malawi from 2010 to 2019, incorporat…
