Resumen:
Objective The aim of this study was to reach a consensus on a set of proposals to optimise the disease management of Multiple myeloma (MM) within the Spanish National Health System (SNHS) and to apply the Social Return on Investment (SROI) method to estimate their social impact. Methods A Multidisciplinary Working Team (MWT) including MM main stakeholders was organised. A survey was administered to gather information from patients regarding the impact of MM on different life domains. A forecast-type SROI analysis, with a 1-year timeframe, was applied. Results Fifteen proposals were selected, to optimise MM management, including actions for early diagnosis, psychological support, improvement of information for patients and quick access to palliative care, among others. The implementation of these proposals would benefit patients, their informal caregivers and the SNHS. The investment required would amount to 10.32 million euros with a social return of 43.31 million euros: 4.2 euros for each euro invested. According to the sensitivity analysis, this ratio could range from 3.38 to 5.20 euros from the worst to the best-case scenario. Conclusions The current management of MM could be optimised by implementing a set of proposals that would most likely result in an overall positive social return.
