Objective  To systematically review the current situation of health economics evaluation of gastric cancer screening. Methods  The PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, WanFang Data and VIP databases were electronically searched to collect the health economics evaluation studies on gastric cancer screening from January 1st, 1975 to September 30th, 2021. Two reviewers independently screened the literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. Then, qualitative analysis was performed. Results  A total of 44 studies were included. Most of the targeted populations of the study were high-risk groups in areas with a high incidence of gastric cancer. Screening methods such as endoscopy and Helicobacter pylori infection detection were mainly evaluated in those studies. According to the results, about 47% of the studies evaluated a single screening method. A total of 35 studies showed that they established models, however, only a few calibrated the models. Conclusion  Most studies of gastric cancer screening reviews neither calibrate the results nor consider the effect of smoking on the progression of gastric cancer. Those evaluated screening programs are limited.
