In Indonesia, smoking is the leading cause of noncommunicable diseases. Tobacco control strategies will
reduce the burden of smoking. The aim of this study is to determine the return on investment (ROI) of tobacco
control program in Indonesia. The OneHealth tool was used to estimate the economic benefits of tobacco
prevention interventions. We calculated the resources and costs of selected packages using a five-year time period
2020-2024. Demographic and unit cost data are used to run the model. The economic benefits were described as
the amount of lives saved and healthy life years earned. The monetary value of productivity gains is divided by
the costs of the intervention to calculate the Return on Investment (ROI). An estimated 1,904 lives will be saved
and 30,882 healthy life years will be restored. Intervention of excise taxes contribute to the majority of averted
deaths (597 deaths) and mass media campaigns responsible to the life years gained (10,452 life years). The overall
economic benefits (13.86 million USD) greatly outweigh the costs over a five-year period (8.5 million USD).
The ROI of the chosen packages will be 1.87, indicating that the intervention packages would result in significant
health and economic benefits. Overall, the findings suggest that investing in a tobacco control program will help
the Indonesian government escape substantial direct and indirect costs. The findings aided in the implementation
of the strategic plan and added to the evidence base for better budgeting, resource allocation plans, and overall
financial planning in the public sector.
