Determinants of willingness to pay for hepatitis b vaccination in Malaysia
Yogambigai, R1.
Hepatitis B infection is an upcoming health problem in Malaysia. HB vaccine coverage of
infants in Malaysia was implemented by the Malaysian government in 1989. However, there
is no compulsory vaccination programme for adults for HB vaccination. Currently, they
have to protect themselves with a self-paid HB vaccination. The determinant of willingness
to pay for HB vaccination is important to examine in order to estimate the economic benefit
of high-burden diseases, such as HB. This study includes a few determinants identified by
a literature review and an added new variable as risk behaviour to determine willingness
to pay.
