Dataset for Estimating the cost of identifying and vaccinating zero-dose children in urban and rural geographies in Pakistan

About this study: This study employed a bottom-up and ingredients-based approach to estimate the financial and economic costs for three zero-dose interventions: polio house-to-house campaigns, Clinics on Wheels, and integrated outreach activities. The latter refers to enhanced outreach rather than integrated outreach across different health areas. To provide a comparison with non-zero dose focused delivery strategies, routine delivery through fixed sites and regular outreach was also examined. Costs were captured retrospectively from 56 sites across provincial, district, and implementation levels in seven districts. Quantitative data collection was complemented by a thematic qualitative assessment at all sites to understand the enabling factors and barriers in identifying and vaccinating zero-dose children. About this file: This file presents the facility-level raw cost data used to estimate the cost of delivering vaccines to zero dose children through fixed site delivery, routine outreach, integrated outreach activities and clinics on wheels. Costs are presented as 2024 USD.
