Cost Utility Analysis of Internet-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Major Depressive Disorder: Randomized Controlled Trial

Cost Utility Analysis of Internet-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Major Depressive Disorder: Randomized Controlled Trial

In total, 3 main categories of costs were identified: intervention costs, health care costs, and societal costs attributed to lost or declined productivity. The health care system perspective accounts for all the costs directly associated with health care services [46], and thus, intervention costs and health care costs are included within this perspective.

Effects of a Digital Therapeutic Adjunct to Eating Disorder Treatment on Health Care Service Utilization and Clinical Outcomes: Retrospective Observational Study Using Electronic Health Records

Effects of a Digital Therapeutic Adjunct to Eating Disorder Treatment on Health Care Service Utilization and Clinical Outcomes: Retrospective Observational Study Using Electronic Health Records

Such high utilization contributes to the economic costs of EDs in the United States, estimated recently to be US $64.7 billion (95% CI US $63.5 to US$66.0 billion) [9]. Furthermore, 20 studies were included in a systematic review on the economic burden of anorexia nervosa (AN), bulimia nervosa (BN), and binge eating disorder (BED), finding an association for all 3 conditions with increased health service use, which included emergency, inpatient, and outpatient care [10].

Wastewater Surveillance Pilot at US Military Installations: Cost Model Analysis

Wastewater Surveillance Pilot at US Military Installations: Cost Model Analysis

In addition, a passive sampling device was prototyped to decrease costs associated with expensive autosampler procurement. We gathered known costs or made estimates of direct costs for all activities required to implement both tier 4 diagnostic testing and WWS protocols. The costs of WWS were based on actual material costs and levels of effort from the WWS pilot study. Costs of tier 4 diagnostic testing were based directly on USAF experience.

Artificial Intelligence as a Potential Catalyst to a More Equitable Cancer Care

Artificial Intelligence as a Potential Catalyst to a More Equitable Cancer Care

Artificial Intelligence (AI) emerges not just as a technological innovation but as a critical instrument with the potential to help overcome critical health challenges, including health care costs, unmet health needs related to the double burden of infectious and noncommunicable diseases, a considerable shortage of trained health professionals, and more importantly, the profound and long-standing inequities in the distribution of the opportunities to health care and well-being [2].

Connecting Female Entertainment Workers in Cambodia to Health Care Services Using mHealth: Economic Evaluation of Mobile Link

Connecting Female Entertainment Workers in Cambodia to Health Care Services Using mHealth: Economic Evaluation of Mobile Link

Using a top-down or gross approach [10,17], we estimated costs from the perspective of payers and patients. Payer costs, including startup (ie, fixed) costs and other variable costs, were estimated using expenditure data collected during the trial (Table 1).

Exploring the Impact of Device Sourcing on Real-World Adherence and Cost Implications of Continuous Glucose Monitoring in Patients With Diabetes: Retrospective Claims Analysis

Exploring the Impact of Device Sourcing on Real-World Adherence and Cost Implications of Continuous Glucose Monitoring in Patients With Diabetes: Retrospective Claims Analysis

No studies have been published examining the impact of the CGM device dispensing source on device adherence and costs, to the authors’ knowledge. To begin closing that knowledge gap, this retrospective analysis of insurance claims data assessed differences in adherence rates and costs among patients with diabetes obtaining CGM supplies through durable medical equipment providers and those using pharmacy services.

Economic Evaluation of a Web Application Implemented in Primary Care for the Treatment of Depression in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial

Economic Evaluation of a Web Application Implemented in Primary Care for the Treatment of Depression in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial

The economic evaluation was carried out from a social perspective, including indirect and direct health care costs expressed in euros for the year 2018. Direct health care costs were estimated based on the use of health care services according to Andalusian public prices [44] (Table 1). The costs of developing and maintaining the web page were calculated using the equivalent annual cost method.

Travel Distance Between Participants in US Telemedicine Sessions With Estimates of Emissions Savings: Observational Study

Travel Distance Between Participants in US Telemedicine Sessions With Estimates of Emissions Savings: Observational Study

Further, we used our findings to generate national estimates of CO2 emissions costs and savings. Under the relatively stable relevant policy conditions of the years 2021-2022, we estimate the annual emissions savings associated with US telemedicine as 1,462,932 metric tons or nearly 1.5 million metric tons. This is equivalent to the CO2 emissions from approximately 3.4 million barrels of oil or 165 million gallons of gasoline [45].

Relationship Between Product Features and the Prices of e-Cigarette Devices Sold in Web-Based Vape Shops: Comparison Study Using a Linear Regression Model

Relationship Between Product Features and the Prices of e-Cigarette Devices Sold in Web-Based Vape Shops: Comparison Study Using a Linear Regression Model

A better understanding of EC devices and their costs is needed to guide taxation policies for devices. In response to these research needs, this study aims to bridge the gap in the literature by analyzing EC device data from popular web-based retailers to evaluate the distribution of device prices and features and investigate the associations between device characteristics and prices in the marketplace using a hedonic pricing model [27].

A Digital Respiratory Ward in Leicester, Leicestershire, and Rutland, England, for Patients With COVID-19: Economic Evaluation of the Impact on Acute Capacity and Wider National Health Service Resource Use

A Digital Respiratory Ward in Leicester, Leicestershire, and Rutland, England, for Patients With COVID-19: Economic Evaluation of the Impact on Acute Capacity and Wider National Health Service Resource Use

This cost minimization analysis only evaluated NHS resource use and the outcomes of interest were acute bed-days saved, their costs offset, and the costs of the digital ward. It was considered that the digital ward would not deliver any change in patients’ long-term, health-related quality of life or health outcomes. The perspective taken was that of the English NHS. Any savings would have been in the acute sector and additional costs in the intermediate care sector.
