          Abstract

          Objetivo. Determinar la disposición de los padres de hijas adolescentes a pagar por una vacuna contra el virus del papiloma humano en la Región del Maule, Chile. Material y métodos. Se utilizó una muestra de 386 padres con hijas entre 12 y 18 años, representativa de las cinco ciudades de mayor población de la Región del Maule, estratificada socioeconómicamente. La disposición a pagar se obtuvo usando el método de valoración contingente en su formato dicotómico doble. Resultados. Los padres están dispuestos a pagar en promedio 126.538 pesos chilenos para vacunar a sus hijas contra el virus; el precio y número de hijas afecta negativamente la probabilidad de la disposición a pagar, y el ingreso familiar afecta positivamente dicha probabilidad. Conclusión. Existe la posibilidad de utilizar financiamiento compartido entre el Estado y los padres de las potenciales hijas que puedan recibir la vacuna contra el virus del papiloma humano para reducir la incidencia de cáncer de cuello uterino.
