Validate cost estimation with pertinent stakeholders.
We recommend validating costs and collecting better epidemiological data for diabetic foot disease in Peru.
KnowMyMeds enables healthcare practitioners to perform clinically validated, cost-effective medication review for high-risk patients, including "dual eligibles" and the chronically ill, to reduce their drug-related hospitalizations and re-admissions.
We focused specifically on the case of a cost function that is inspired by a previously experimentally validated cost-benefit model [ 25].
The model has previously undergone peer-review [ 11, 12] and health technology assessments [ 31] and in terms of structure is very similar to a previously developed and validated cost-effectiveness model [ 32, 33].
Another economic evaluation, conducted in the Swedish setting, did not address the choice of gonadotropins, focusing on SET vs DET, but it can be used to compare and cross-validate cost data used in our model.
Receipts, hospital and insurance cost records will also be sourced, where available, from participants to validate reported costs.
Actual pharmaceutical expenditure data held by the Australian government was accessed for all consenting patients (23 surgical and 17 medical) to validate medication costs.
The TARIFF study, based on a cost-minimization analysis, directly comparing remote follow-up with standard ambulatory visits, will validate the cost effectiveness of the Merlin.net technology, and define a proper reimbursement schedule applicable for the Italian healthcare system.
The TARIFF study, based on a cost-minimization analysis, directly comparing remote follow-up with standard ambulatory visits, will hopefully validate the cost effectiveness of the Merlin.net technology, and define a proper reimbursement schedule applicable for the Italian healthcare system.
