Abstract:
One skill required of the modern physician is the ability to provide effective care while spending a minimal amount of money. As outcomes become more complex, it is important to have a structured approach to the evaluation of effectiveness. Decision analysis provides the tools to quantitate and compare the utilities of alternate strategies.
