Item Disposição a pagar por um serviço de dispensação de medicamentos: perspectiva da população do município de Goiânia, Goiás, Brasil(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2019-10-02) Rocha filho, César Ramos; Dewulf, Nathalie de Lourdes Souza; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1244479719591748; Dewulf, Nathalie de Lourdes Souza; Vieira, Fabiola Sulpino; Cardoso, Larissa Barbosa; Lopes, Angela Ferreira; Provin, Mercia PandolfoObjective: To evaluate the Willingness to Pay (WTP) for a pharmacists’ dispensing service, as strategy to contribute with the debate and to provide subsidies for the optimization of the service in the planning of public health policies in Brazil. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among residents of Goiânia, Brazil. We applied the contingent valuation method, with dichotomous choice question. Furthermore, Qui-square test and multiple logistic regression model were used to assess the relationship of the participants’ opinions and characteristics with “real” WTP. Results: A sample of 327 interviewed were statically analyzed. More than half (55.96%) were certainty that they would pay 14 BRL for a dispensing service. Moreover, in a context of gratuity, 92.05% of the participants would seek for the service. Characteristics such as education level, family income, respondents’ perception of pharmacists’ abilities, not having used the service, no history with Drug-Related Problems, perceived health status, and recent use of medicines demonstrated to contribute significantly to the prediction of WTP. Conclusion: It was observed a feasibility of implementation and incorporation of the service from society’ perspective. Additionally, we noted some limitations and biases in the WTP study design, which should be carefully considered as the methodology development progresses.
