  1. aUncertainty bounds – for cost per episode these were taken from the ranges of the model effectiveness estimates. For the DALYs and Deaths a ± 20% was used in the absence of any cost uncertainty, a gamma distribution was assumed for all parameters and 10,000 iterations were run using monte carlo simulations
