This study examined the association of the first penny per ounce sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) excise tax with beverage prices, sales, store revenue/consumer spending, and usual beverage intake in Berkeley, California. Main outcomes and measures included changes in inflation-adjusted prices, beverage sales, consumers’ spending measured as store revenue in two large chains, and usual beverage intake. One year following the implementation of the nation’s first large SSB tax, prices of SSBs increased in many, but not…

ArticlePublication 2018Cost-Effectiveness of Financial Incentives and Disincentives for Improving Food Purchases and Health through SNAP
This analysis estimated the health impact, costs, and cost-effectiveness of food incentives, disincentives, or restrictions …
This analysis estimated the health impact, costs, and cost-effectiveness of food incentives, disincentives, or restrictions in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). A microsimulation model (CVD-PREDICT) was used to compare three policy interventions: (1) a 30% incentive for fruits and vegetables (F&V), (2) a 30% F&V incentive with a restriction of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs), and (3) a broader incentive/disincentive program for multiple foods that also preserves choice (SNAP-plus). From a societal perspective, all three scenarios…

ArticlePublication 2019Cost-Effectiveness of U.S. National SSB Tax with a Multistakeholder Approach: Who Pays and Who Benefits
This analysis estimated the health impact and cost-effectiveness of a national penny-per-ounce sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) …
This analysis estimated the health impact and cost-effectiveness of a national penny-per-ounce sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) tax, overall and with stratified costs and benefits for nine distinct stakeholder groups. A microsimulation model (CVD PREDICT) was used to estimate cardiovascular disease reductions, quality-adjusted life years gained, and cost-effectiveness for U.S. adults aged 35 to 85 years, evaluating full and partial consumer price pass-through. Results showed that from both a health care and societal perspective, the SSB tax was…

An excise tax of 1 peso per liter on sugar-sweetened beverages was implemented in Mexico …
An excise tax of 1 peso per liter on sugar-sweetened beverages was implemented in Mexico in 2014. This analysis estimates the cost-effectiveness of this tax as well as an alternative tax scenario of 2 pesos per liter. A cohort simulation model calibrated for Mexico was used to project the impact of the tax over ten years. Results showed that the current tax is projected to prevent 239,900 cases of obesity, 39 percent of which would…
