One thousand bootstrap estimates of the differences in mean cost and mean (quality adjusted) survival time between pre- and post-intervention. The cost-effectiveness plane represents the incremental costs and effects of the intervention compared to regular care. The origin represents the comparator treatment, in this case non personalized follow up management. If the new intervention lies to the right of the origin it is more effective (i.e., it has more QALYs than those with regular care), or if it lies to the left of the origin it is less effective. If it lies above the x-axis then it is more costly than B, and vice versa
