Abstract

Hemophilia A is a prevalent coagulation disorder with high treatment expenses that places a significant financial burden on individuals, families, and society. Therefore, acessing the willingness to pay for this illness is crucial to take patients' accessibility into account and provide the required support measures. The study was carried out at the National Institute of Hematology and Blood Transfusion between 10/2021 and 06/2022. The study surveyed 194 patients with a male rate of 100%. The mean value of hemophilia A patients' willingness to pay per quality-adjusted life year (WTP/QALY) is 164.841.827,72 VND/QALY (95%CI: 118.514.386,40 - 211.169.269,03 VND/QALY). Relevant factors affecting the patient's WTP/QALY include marital status, education level, living place, health insurance benefits, age, disease level, quality of life coefficient as measured by the EQ-5D-5L and VAS scale.
