Abstract

Since 1985 the analysis of the economic impact of the AIDS epidemic has been increasing in importance. One aim of this research is to provide an estimate of the financial effects of AIDS as early as possible. Existing studies assess mainly the costs for treatment of AIDS patients in different health care settings (Drummond and Davies, 1989).
