Explore facility-level average costs per client of HIV testing and counselling (HTC) and voluntary medical male circumcision (VMMC) services in 13 countries. Through a literature search we identified studies that reported facility-level costs of HTC or VMMC programmes. We requested the primary data from authors and standardised the disparate data sources to make them comparable. We then conducted descriptive statistics and a meta-analysis to assess the cost variation among facilities. All costs were converted to 2017 US dollars ($). We gathered data from 14 studies across 13 countries and 772 facilities (552 HTC, 220 VMMC). The weighted average unit cost per client served was $15 (95% CI 12, 18) for HTC and $59 (95% CI 45, 74) for VMMC. On average, 38% of the mean unit cost for HTC corresponded to recurrent costs, 56% to personnel costs, and 6% to capital costs. For VMMC, 41% of the average unit cost corresponded to recurrent costs, 55% to personnel costs, and 4% to capital costs. We observed unit cost variation within and between countries, and lower costs in higher scale categories in all interventions.
探究13个国家中每位客户接受艾滋病毒检测与咨询(HTC)以及男性自愿医学包皮环切术(VMMC)服务的机构层面平均成本。通过文献检索,我们确定了报告HTC或VMMC项目机构层面成本的研究。我们向作者索要原始数据,并对不同的数据来源进行标准化处理,使其具有可比性。然后,我们进行了描述性统计和荟萃分析,以评估各机构之间的成本差异。所有成本均换算为2017年美元($)。我们收集了来自13个国家772家机构(552家提供HTC服务,220家提供VMMC服务)的14项研究的数据。HTC服务每位客户的加权平均单位成本为15美元(95%置信区间12美元,18美元),VMMC服务为59美元(95%置信区间45美元,74美元)。平均而言,HTC平均单位成本的38%对应经常性成本,56%对应人员成本,6%对应资本成本。对于VMMC服务,平均单位成本的41%对应经常性成本,55%对应人员成本,4%对应资本成本。我们观察到各国国内和国家之间的单位成本存在差异,并且在所有干预措施中,规模较大类别中的成本较低。
