Background: Quantifying disease costs is critical for policymakers to set priorities, allocate resources, select control and prevention strategies, and evaluate the cost-effectiveness of interventions. Although malaria carries a very large disease burden, the availability of comprehensive and comparable estimates of malaria costs across endemic countries is scarce.
Methods: A literature review to summarize methodologies utilized to estimate malaria treatment costs was conducted to identify gaps in knowledge.
