The researchers applied a value-based analysis approach to implementing a single best practice for preventing deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in surgical patients and were able to reduce hospital costs in excess of $1.5 million per year. The study appears in the April issue of the Journal of the American College of Surgeons.
Emerging as one of the many pieces to the puzzle is the adoption of pathways based on evidence-based medicine (EBM).It has long been theorized that the use of standardized care models not only improves the quality of care, but also reduces costs and makes costs more predictable.ne way in which EBM can help reduce the costs of cancer care is by optimizing the appropriate use of less expensive drugs. When pathways are developed, it will often be found that evidence supports the use of less expensive therapies, without compromising outcomes or increasing toxicity.
