Despite the well-known benefits of community-based practitioners, there is lack of evidence regarding the cost effectiveness of their work. This study aims to address this lack of information on the cost effectiveness to meet health systems goals using literature review, mapping, and case studies. The researchers concluded that community-based practitioners are, indeed, cost effective in some settings, depending on a number of different variables. From this data they also developed an economic model reflecting their findings.
