We considered that, given the assumption of equal efficacy in the model, it would be appropriate to use the lowest unit cost for each technology to reflect cost-effective practice.
The cost assumptions in the analysis were modified by assessing the impact of assuming the least expensive (metal on polyethylene) THA implant was used throughout with no effect on observed outcomes, to reflect the potential concern that the THA arm might not reflect cost-effective practice.
For this analysis we take the most conservative cut-off of USD 36 to reflect a highly cost-effectiveness intervention, and from USD 36 to USD 202 to reflect a cost effective intervention.
The charges do not reflect costs.
Recognising that the selection of cost-effectiveness thresholds in published literature is subjective [68], we refer to the conservative cut off point of US$2233 per DALY averted to reflect a cost-effective intervention, and US$377 per DALY averted to reflect a highly cost-effective intervention.
Given the low-intensity nature of the intervention (the median session duration was just less than 20 min, which means that for most people, the 12-session intervention came to less than 4 hr in total), a small between-groups effect size may in fact still reflect a cost-effective intervention technique and, thus, be worth pursuing.
If the threshold is defined low enough to accept a large number of streams on one streaming server in a stable streaming environment even if the stream bandwidth changes, this reflects the most cost effective point of operation.
In terms of a cost effective management policy, the percentage of maximum allowed traffic volume must reflect to sufficient road exploitation.
Passage of these regulatory laws reflects the public's growing confidence in naturopathic medicine as an effective and cost effective form of care.
The government wants tariffs, in time, to reflect the most cost-effective forms of treatment, rather than the average across hospitals.
This can be cost effective".
