07-2018 - Socioeconomic cost of food hypersensitivity on the island of Ireland

Objective/Knowledge Gap The aim of this project is to estimate the annual socioeconomic costs associated with having a diagnosed food hypersensitivity. Validated diagnostic methodologies have been developed for food allergy or coeliac disease and are routinely used in clinical practice. Therefore, the scope of the research will be restricted to those consumers on the island of Ireland who have been medically diagnosed with food allergy or coeliac disease. Specifically: a) To determine the food hypersensitivity-related direct health care costs per capita per annum for consumers on the island of Ireland with food hypersensitivity. b) To determine the food hypersensitivity-related indirect costs per capita per annum for consumers on the island of Ireland with food hypersensitivity. c) To determine the intangible costs of food hypersensitivity for consumers on the island of Ireland with food hypersensitivity. d) To determine the annual direct and indirect costs of food hypersensitivity to the health care systems on the island of Ireland.
