Fig. 2

Incremental cost-effectiveness ratios in incremental analysis*. (* Incremental analysis typically compares a new intervention A2 to standard care A1, and the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio is reflected by the slope α1α2. Incremental analysis may also evaluate standard care but this is not often done. In the figure, it would entail the comparison of A1 to the ‘doing nothing’ scenario. In that case, the incremental cost-effectiveness is reflected by the slope from the origin to A1)
