A Cost Analysis of Kidney Replacement Therapy Options in Palestine
This study provides a cost analysis of kidney replacement therapy options in Palestine. It informs evidence-based resource allocation decisions for government-funded kidney disease services where transplant donors are limited, and some of the common modalities, i.e., peritoneal dialysis (PD) and home hemodialysis (HD), are not widely available due to shortages of qualified staff, specialists, and centers to follow the patient cases, provide train…

We refer to a large, VA Medical Center (VAMC) hospital and healthcare complex as a case for comparison of financing approaches. Several legislative proposals had been made to grant the VA funding transfers from Medicare…

Budget pressures on governmental units have produced resistance to any further shift in the charity care burden. We observe in a lawsuit (State of Texas vs. The Methodist Hospital) what appears to be a classic moral hazard situation. The government expects a certain (unspecif…
