Abstract Background Sexually transmitted infection STI prevention programs can mitigate the health and economic burden of STIs. A tool to estimate the economic benefits of STI programs could prove useful to STI program personnel. Methods We developed formulas that can be applied to estimate the direct medical costs and indirect costs lost productivity averted by STI programs in the United States. Costs and probabilities for these formulas were based primarily on published studies. Results We present a series of formulas that can be used to estimate the economic benefits of STI prevention in 2006 US dollars using data routinely collected by STI programs. For example the averted sequelae costs associated with treating women for chlamydia is given as Cw l 995 where Cw is the number of infected women treated for chlamydia is the absolute reduction in the probability of pelvic inflammatory
