1. Economic evaluation of substance abuse treatment programs aims to assess costs and benefits in order to improve effectiveness and rationalize resource allocation.
2. Key aspects of economic evaluation include measuring treatment costs using tools like DATCAP and measuring outcomes using tools like ASI to assess areas like criminal behavior, employment, and health service use.
3. Benefits are converted to monetary values and compared to costs to calculate cost-benefit ratios and net benefits to understand the monetary gains from investments in reducing crime, improving health, and reducing costs to the justice system.

Health Economics is the science of assessing cost and benefits of health care therapies and service. HE is about making choices between options, when there is scarcity of resources.
Health economics is the discipline of economics applied to the topic of health care. Broadly defined, economics concerns how society allocates its resources among alternative uses. Health economics addresses questions primarily from the perspective of efficiency, maximising the benefits from available resources or ensuring benefits gained exceed benefits forgone. This presentation covers the concept, components, importance, factors influencing, steps and various types of evaluation in health economics.
Should Drug Prices Differ by Indication? Outlining the debate on indication-b...Office of Health Economics
The notion that the price of a medicine should be linked in some way to the value it generates for patients and the health system is generally accepted. Yet, how can this be achieved when, increasingly, medicines are being developed that derive patient across many different indications? We summarise the current state-of-play for indication-based pricing (IBP), both in theory as described in the key literature, and in practice by investigating its use in the US and five major European countries.

From the Front Lines
The break even analysis figures can be used to establish the impacts of various
reimbursements such as Medicare, Medicaid, and Private and self-pay contributions. Notably,
from the break even analysis of the “From the Front lines” facility, increase in Medicare and
Medicaid benefits have an effect of increasing sales volume. Eventually, the value of the gross
margin increases leading to an upsurge of the value of the contribution per unit. This leads to a
reduction in the number of the break-even procedures. Private or self-pays have an effect of
increasing the volume of sales in addition to the increment made by Medicaid and Medicare
benefits. As a result, the break even procedures will become even smaller causing a
corresponding increase in profit margins.
Break even analysis is essentially important in developing my upcoming capital
investment proposal. It will be applicable in clarifying the extent of the viability of my planned
objectives. Specifically, this tool will be of great significance in evaluating expansion
opportunities, new providers, new services or new capital purchases (Cafferky, 2012). Break
even analysis is basically used in establishing whether the planned activity is viable enough to
cover the expected costs that are principally divided into variable and fixed expenses.
Also, I will utilize break analysis values to ascertain whether the capital proposal will be
financially viable. Specifically, it will be applicable in determining the activity level that will

break even analysis will be used to evaluate the critical components of my budget plan.
Typically, break even analysis and the budget plan are used interchangeably while
making financial analysis that concerns various capital investment plan proposals (Cafferky,
2012).

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.
The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS
