In Holland, where there is very high standard of Anticoagulation Therapy Management care, as mentioned in Model One, F. Rosendaal et al , study (Ref, Journal of Thrombosis and Thrombolysis, ISSN 0929-5303 Vol 2, No 4 page265 – 269) approximately 3 major bleed incidents per 100 patient years.

Average cost of Major Incidence (Conservative Estimate)

$20,000

Total cost of major incidence per annum

$600,000

If the average cost of the computer system per annum is

$4250

To cover the cost of implementing Dawn AC, the computer only needs to only improve the reduction in Major incidence rate by say 1%
