Imperatively, numerous costs are incurred in rendering healthcare. The costs associated with the healthcare delivery system can be quantified into direct costs and indirect costs. On the one hand, direct costs more often than not signify the costs linked with the utilization of medical resources. In essence, direct costs are largely delineated as the expenditures that that can be traced back to a particular healthcare visit or practice. Imperatively, direct costs take into account all of the costs that are associated to hand-on or practical patient care and those that can be directly apportioned to a certain kind of medical visitation or surgical case (Finkler and Ward, 1999). There is… Continue Reading...

The cost-benefit analysis is written as if the healthcare provider was underwriting the direct costs of the use of bilingual interpreters in the healthcare setting. While an evidence-based project of this nature is likely to be supported by grant funding or through in-kind contributions, the implementation of this intervention is a responsibility of the healthcare provider. Therefore, undertaking the cost-benefit analysis as if the healthcare provider was underwriting the direct costs is critical toward determining the effectiveness or efficiency of the proposed intervention. Additionally, the cost-benefit analysis is written in a manner that demonstrates the efficiency and effectiveness of the intervention. Efficiency provides… Continue Reading...

Budget Justification
The budget is designed in a manner that covers both the direct and indirect costs of conducting this research. Generally, conducting a research project of this magnitude requires incurring direct and indirect costs because of the complexities involved. Some of the direct costs that will be incurred in conducting this research include salaries and wages, administrative and clerical support, and consumable supplies and materials. On the other hand, indirect costs include facilities and administrative costs that are not readily allocated to a specific component of the project's execution.
For this budget, the indirect costs represent 10% of the total direct costs of conducting… Continue Reading...

attributable to the fact that the project is designed based on the assumption that the provider will underwrite all direct costs relating to project execution. Bilingual interpreters will act as intermediaries between patients and providers with regards to provide linguistic interventions for language barriers. These stakeholders will communicate with patients and providers to help patients articulate their issues better and promote improved understanding of patients’ issues by the care provider. Clinical and non-clinical staff will collaborate with the patient and bilingual interpreter to provide a suitable healthcare environment and ensure appropriate treatment approaches are adopted to address the patients’ conditions. The project team will provide supervise the project implementation… Continue Reading...

One of the main positive externalities perceived in Kuwait is oil wealth, in which the social gains generated are greater compared to private gains. Kuwait's accomplishment is that it has, on the whole, employed its oil revenue to make available a high standard of living for complete Kuwaiti citizens, whereas to a much lesser magnitude also profiting non-Kuwaitis. The wealth generated from oil has been responsible for the transformation of Kuwait from a desert expanse into a contemporary city-state (El-Katiri… Continue Reading...
2013, vaccination will… over the course of their lives” result in “a net saving of $295 billion in direct costs and $1.38 trillion in total societal costs.” Sugerman, Barskey, Delea, and Ortega-Sanchez (749) point out that in 2008, a 7-year-old boy who had remained unvaccinated against measles (intentionally) caused a serious outbreak of the same disease in San Diego, California upon returning from Switzerland. As a consequence 11 children who had not yet been vaccinated against measles contracted the disease. According to the authors, this particular incidence caused “a net public-sector cost of $10,376 per case”…[…… parts of this paper are missing, click here to view the entire… Continue Reading...

Moreover, the study identifies non-conformance and gaps in the Health… Continue Reading...
adverse health consequences. Notably, at the present moment, hypertension is the prevalent contributing factor to global disease encumbrance, and the direct and indirect costs incurred in the treatment of hypertension are exponentially greater (Leggio et al., 2017). Obesity and hypertension are closely associated. Statistics indicate that there are approximately 58 million to 65 million adults suffering from hypertension in the United States. In addition, the proportion of individuals with obesity in the United States is rising. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) statistics show that globally there are 2.3 billion adults that are overweight and more than 700 million are suffering from obesity (Jiang et al., 2016). In accordance to Chriqui… Continue Reading...
