0.8
Comparator Evidence base on costs and long term progression in PsA is small – requires further investigation
$ particularly on how level HAQ and PASI effect hospitalisation and other costs
Health Utility
0.6
Long term evidence on TNF-α inhibitors is limited – registries and observational trials required to analyse

Conclusions
0.2 Etanercept appears to be a cost effective intervention for patients who have attempted previous DMARDs.
0
Using a probabilistic sensitivity analysis, results suggest that one is 58% certain etanercept is cost effective
