Abstract: | In an effort to provide high quality care in a more cost-effective manner, health care providers have found it necessary to implement a series of decision support strategies designed to improve outcomes of care. While each of these strategies has measurable benefits, they each come along with additional costs. This article will describe a methodology for measuring the costs and direct and indirect benefits from decision support activities. |
