| Resource | Typhoid Conjugate Vaccine (TCV) Costing Tool |
|---|---|
| Purpose | This tool estimates the costs associated with introducing and scaling up typhoid conjugate vaccines (TCVs) in national immunization programs. |
| Content | The Excel-based tool allows users to input data on vaccine procurement, delivery logistics, cold chain requirements, and operational costs. It includes templates for prospective and retrospective cost analysis. |
| Use | National immunization program managers, policymakers, and financial planners can use this tool to develop budgets and advocate for funding to introduce TCVs. It supports planning and decision-making by estimating the financial implications of TCV introduction. |
| Contraints/Limitations | The tool’s accuracy relies on the quality and completeness of input data. Costs may vary based on local factors such as infrastructure, procurement prices, and healthcare delivery capacity. |
| Example criteria this resource could address | Estimating the budget required for TCV introduction, analyzing cost drivers for typhoid vaccination, supporting resource mobilization for TCV programs. |
| If available, notes on the development process | Developed by WHO with input from global immunization and costing experts to provide a comprehensive approach to TCV costing. |
