| Abstract |
|
New pulmonary rehabilitation models can improve access to this effective but underutilised treatment for people with chronic respiratory disease, however cost effectiveness has not been determined. To compare the cost effectiveness of telerehabilitation, including videoconferencing and synchronous supervision, to standard center-based pulmonary rehabilitation. Prospective economic analyses were undertaken from a societal perspective alongside a randomised controlled equivalence trial in which adults with stable chronic respiratory disease undertook an 8-week outpatient center-based program or telerehabilitation. Clinical assessment for effectiveness (Chronic Respiratory Disease Questionnaire dyspnoea domain [CRQ-D] score) was undertaken at baseline, following pulmonary rehabilitation and 12-month follow-up. Individual-level administrative and self-report healthcare cost data were collected over 12 months following the program (Australian dollars, 2020) Results: There were no between-group differences for effectiveness (CRQ-D MD -0.2 [SE 1.0], p=0.61) or total costs ($565 [5452], p=0.92) over 12 months. On the cost effectiveness plane, 97.4% of estimates fell between the equivalence margins for effectiveness. Application of a range of values for cost margin demonstrated a 95% probability that telerehabilitation was equivalent to center-based pulmonary rehabilitation when the threshold was $11,000. Results were robust to approach, sensitivity and subgroup analyses. The internal rate of return was 134% over 5 years. Program completion (regardless of model) was associated with a significant reduction in total costs in the following 12 months (β $-17,960, 95%CI -29,967 to -5952). Conclusions This study supports delivery of telerehabilitation as a cost-effective alternative model of pulmonary rehabilitation for people with chronic respiratory disease. |
