I'd like to be able to compare various biomedical interventions to GiveWell's estimate of the cost to save a life via AMF ($4500). This is the cost "per death averted," whereas I would like to get the cost "per QALY saved." This would allow for direct comparisons with the biomedical literature, where cost-per-QALY is the standard metric used in cost-effectiveness analysis.
Does GiveWell have cost-per-QALY for their own interventions listed somewhere?
I would go with this, though using more like 60 years
I would also discount a bit for counterfactual mortality.
