TL;DR: All of the evaluated physical activity interventions appeared to reduce disease incidence, to be cost-effective, and--compared with other well-accepted preventive strategies--to offer good value for money.

TL;DR: An actuarial approach is used to measure the frequency and costs of measurable US medical errors, identified through medical claims data, and it is estimated that the annual cost of measurable medical errors that harm patients was $17.1 billion in 2008.

TL;DR: Understanding correlates of OUD development can help to predict risk and inform prevention efforts and a predictive model incorporating these findings was 79.5% concordant with actual OUDs in the data set.

TL;DR: This work analyzes the injury and error rates and extrapolate to the U.S. population to determine the medical cost difference per injury and the mortality and disability cost difference each per injury.

TL;DR: ADR detection, using administrative data, revealed differences in age, comorbidities, and drug classifications between ambulatory care and hospital settings, which can be used to develop focused prevention strategies and targeted surveillance for individuals most at risk for developing ADRs.
