On August 13 HIIC Vers 2.0 will be launched at a Melbourne School of Population and Global Health seminar. HIIC allows users to estimate the health gain (HALYs, deaths averted) and economic impacts (health system disease expenditure savings, income gains) of any population health intervention that can be inputted as one of:

  • A change in future disease incidence rates (prevention)
  • A change in future disease case fatality, remission and severity rates (treatments)
  • Or a change in future risk factor distributions (e.g. BMI; prevention).

HIIC is a world-first tool, building on 20 year of research activity in Australasia and more recently by the Scalable Health Intervention Evaluation program (SHINE) at MSPGH, University of Melbourne.

HIIC currently works for Australia.  All countries in the world will be loaded up by the end of 2025 – for health gain estimation at least.
