Dale et al. (Am J Epidemiol. 2022;191(2):255\u2013270) evaluated strategies for tuberculosis infection screening and treatment among new migrants to Australia. Screening for infection before migration, and then administering preventive treatment after arrival, was more cost-effective than performing both screening and treatment after arrival. From the Australian health payer perspective, the improved cost-effectiveness of premigration screening partly reflected the shift of screening costs to migrants, which may raise ethical concerns. Key sensitivity analyses highlighted the influence of health disutility associated with tuberculosis preventive treatment, and of posttreatment sequelae of tuberculosis disease. Both considerations warrant greater attention in future research. For all strategies, the impact on tuberculosis incidence among migrants was modest (&amp;lt;15%), suggesting enhanced migrant screening will not achieve tuberculosis elimination in low-incidence settings. This emphasizes the need to increase investment and effort in global tuberculosis prevention and care, which will ultimately reduce the prevalence of tuberculosis infection and therefore the risk of tuberculosis disease among migrants. Such efforts will benefit high and low tuberculosis incidence countries alike, and advance all countries further toward tuberculosis elimination.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/aje\/kwab193","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,28]],"date-time":"2021-06-28T19:16:55Z","timestamp":1624907815000},"page":"271-274","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Invited Commentary: The Role of Tuberculosis Screening Among Migrants to Low-Incidence Settings in (Not) Achieving Elimination"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"191","author":[{"given":"Jonathon R","family":"Campbell","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kevin","family":"Schwartzman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"2022020821305705500_ref1","volume-title":"Towards TB Elimination: An Action Framework for Low-Incidence Countries","author":"World Health Organization","year":"2014"},{"issue":"1","key":"2022020821305705500_ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"48","DOI":"10.1186\/s12916-016-0595-5","article-title":"The impact of migration on tuberculosis epidemiology and control in high-income countries: a review","volume":"14","author":"Pareek","year":"2016","journal-title":"BMC Med"},{"issue":"9","key":"2022020821305705500_ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1422","DOI":"10.3201\/eid1809.120128","article-title":"Evaluation of immigrant tuberculosis screening in industrialized countries","volume":"18","author":"Pareek","year":"2012","journal-title":"Emerg Infect Dis"},{"key":"2022020821305705500_ref4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"3","DOI":"10.1186\/1471-2334-11-3","article-title":"A comparative examination of tuberculosis immigration medical screening programs from selected countries with high immigration and low tuberculosis incidence rates","volume":"11","author":"Alvarez","year":"2011","journal-title":"BMC Infect Dis"},{"key":"2022020821305705500_ref5","volume-title":"Module 1, Prevention: Tuberculosis Preventive Treatment","author":"World Health Organization","year":"2020"},{"issue":"1","key":"2022020821305705500_ref6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1800591","DOI":"10.1183\/13993003.00591-2018","article-title":"Screening for tuberculosis in migrants and visitors from high-incidence settings: present and future perspectives","volume":"52","author":"Dobler","year":"2018","journal-title":"Eur Respir J"},{"issue":"1","key":"2022020821305705500_ref7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"412","DOI":"10.1186\/s12913-015-1045-3","article-title":"A scoping review of cost-effectiveness of screening and treatment for latent tuberculosis infection in migrants from high-incidence countries","volume":"15","author":"Zammarchi","year":"2015","journal-title":"BMC Health Serv Res"},{"issue":"14","key":"2022020821305705500_ref8","article-title":"The effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of screening for active tuberculosis among migrants in the EU\/EEA: a systematic review","volume":"23","author":"Greenaway","year":"2018","journal-title":"Euro Surveill"},{"issue":"4","key":"2022020821305705500_ref9","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"661","DOI":"10.3201\/eid2504.171630","article-title":"Cost-effectiveness of latent tuberculosis infection screening before immigration to low-incidence countries","volume":"25","author":"Campbell","year":"2019","journal-title":"Emerg Infect Dis"},{"issue":"3","key":"2022020821305705500_ref10","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"780","DOI":"10.1164\/ajrccm.161.3.9902005","article-title":"Tuberculosis screening of immigrants to low-prevalence countries.
