ESTIMASI POTENSI KERUGIAN EKONOMI DAN BIAYA PENANGGULANGAN AKIBAT ANEMIA DI INDONESIA
Abstract: The aim of this
study was to estimate the economic loss and cost of intervention due to iron
deficiency anemia (IDA) in Indonesia. The data in this research were secondary
data from several related institution. Potential economic losses due to IDA can
be estimated by calculating the economic value of cognitive impairment, reduced
work productivity, and increased maintenance costs due to low birth weight. The
economic value of cognitive impairment estimated by multiplying the wages,
prevalence and population. The economic value of decreased productivity of
labour was estimated by multiplying the wages of non-agricultural, agricultural
wages, prevalence, population and labor force participation rate (LFPR). The
result of this research are the total amount of potential national loss due to
IDA approximately Rp 62.02 trillion per year (US$5.08 billion) representing 0.711%
of the country’s GDP and the cost for intervention approximately Rp 1.95
billion per year (US$150 milion). The cost of intervention is less than the
economic loss.
