In 2000, using data from a single managed-care health plan, we estimated that the median, annual, direct medical cost of care for a man with diet-controlled type 2 diabetes with no microvascular, neuropathic, or cardiovascular risk factors or complications was approximately $1,700 (23).
For each group of health plans (below-average scoring, average scoring and above-average scoring health plans), we estimated the mean per aspect for 2005 and 2008 and tested whether the differences were statistically significant using chi-squares.
Just before the COP21 summit, we released an Africa Climate Business Plan, in which we estimated that African countries will need more than $16 billion between now and 2020 to help them deal with the devastating impacts of climate change.

When planning the study we estimated that a sample of around15 smokers and ex-smokers of both sexes would give enough information.
"We estimate that there are currently around 250 solar farms in the UK, and with numerous others in the planning system, we estimate there will be over 1,000 by the end of the decade," said Eustice.
Following the logistic regressions, we estimated planned contrasts to test the associations between the specific policy elements presented in Table 1 and ECEC use.
In the experiment, we estimated planned movement time, separately for each movement, of a condition by computing the mean of actual movement time across trials in that condition.
Per year and per quality aspect, we estimated health plan means while adjusting for consumers' age, education and self-reported health status.
For each of the RAP-Ux% estimated allocation plans, we calculate mean response time SLO violations as defined in "Resource allocation planning (RAP)" section.
Bottlers spend $600 million annually on logistics and have major plans for growth; we estimate that by tailoring their service delivery channels to the needs of distinct groups of customers, bottlers can save an average of $80 million to $90 million a year for the next ten years.
