with or without diagnosis) were obtained from Spanish sources (V 2019). The use of healthcare resources (National Health System perspective) and other model assumptions were obtained from a panel of Spanish clinical experts. Results: After 1, 5, 10 and 15 years, the diagnosis of ATTR-CM would generate a gain of 0.031 (95%CI 0.025; 0.038); 0.387 (95%CI 0.329; 0.435); 0.754 (95%CI 0.678; 0.781) and 0.944 (95% CI 0.905; 0.983) years of life per patient, respectively, with savings of V 212 (95%CI V -632; 633), V 2,289 (95%CI V 2,250; 2,517), V 2,859 (95%CI V 2,584; 3,149) and V 2,906 (95%CI V 2,669; 3,450) per patient, respectively, compared to the non-diagnosis of the disease. In the first year of follow-up, 10.1% fewer cardiovascular hospitalizations would be observed, among the group of patients diagnosed vs. the undiagnosed. Conclusions: According to this model, with the correct diagnosis of ATTR-CM, years of life would be gained, hospitalizations due to cardiovascular causes would be avoided and savings would be generated for the Spanish NHS, compared to the non-diagnosis of the disease without considering initiation of specific therapies.
