It has been an object of the program to establish a benchmark for cost-effectiveness in the microhydro field.
In addition, our results compared favourably with another benchmark for cost-effectiveness, the gross domestic product per capita in the respective countries [52], [53], as well as cost-effectiveness estimates for other interventions for malaria and bacterial infections [54], [55], [56].
The 'best options' are defined as interventions which are cost-effective as measured by the commonly used benchmark for cost-effectiveness in Australia of less than $50,000 per DALY (disability-adjusted life-year saved).
The probability of the ICER being below €80,000 the Dutch benchmark for cost-effective interventions on patients with high disease severity was only 50%% for the totally sustained scenario, casting doubt on whether the intervention is viable.
If these implemented interventions are considered to be an accepted benchmark for cost-effectiveness, then our results suggests that only screening with CE MRI combined with mammography of the BRCA1/BRCA2 subgroups is likely to be a cost-effective screening policy.
Our study provides a benchmark for costs for transplantation in the US and lays the foundation for further comprehensive research in this area.
At a small fraction of the per capita income in Mexico, such gains are considered to be exceptionally good value, based on standard benchmarks for cost effectiveness analysis.
While DfID's programmes use proven interventions such as bednets, which compare favourably with global benchmarks for cost-effectiveness, the department has further to go to demonstrate that it has fully secured value for money, said the National Audit Office NAOO).
These values are substantially lower than the £30,000 and US$50,000 US$200,000 thresholds that are often cited as the upper limits deemed to be acceptable in the United Kingdom 39 and the United States, 40 respectively, and which are considered benchmarks for cost-effectiveness.
The benchmark for this cost analysis has been set to be our university hospital, where a dedicated breast unit is active and the most advanced technologies for the early detection and treatment of breast cancer are available.
Oakwood now plans to reduce this to £12,000 per prisoner, prompting Chris Grayling to cite it as the benchmark for future costs for all prisons.
