Life Saving Rate of Low Weight Birth Child Calculation

Inputs:
1. Prevalence of Low Birth Weight (%)	5
2. Births per year	1000000
3. Neonatal Death rate (deaths <1 month/1000 live births)	10
Assumptions:
1. Cost of LBW-related neonatal care for infants born in health facilities ($/LBW neonate)	209
2. Proportion of LBW births occurring in health facilities	0.1
3. Cost of LBW-related neonatal care for infants born at home (as proportion of facility costs)	0.1
4. Cost of additional post neonatal LBW-related care for infants and children ($/LBW infant)	40
Intermediate results:
1. Cost of LBW-related neonatal care for infants born in health facilities ($/year)	1045000
2. Cost of LBW-related neonatal care for infants born at home ($/year)	940500
Results:
1. Cost of LBW-related neonatal care ($/year)	1985500
2. Cost of LBW-related post neonatal care ($/year)	1980000
3. Total cost of LBW-related infant and child medical care ($/year)	3965500
