Utilization review. Health economics and cost-effective resource management.

In an effort to reduce their health care burden, health care payors have turned to utilization controls and restructured health care payment systems to control health care costs. While health care payors are interested in economic restraints, health care providers are being placed at increasing levels of financial risk, and they struggle to maintain high quality services. Quality of care must remain our number one priority, but it is essential to achieve this goal in a cost-efficient manner. Cost-efficiencies are gained through the development of a comprehensive physician education program that encourages information exchange, physician input, and the implementation of positive alternatives that lead to efficiencies in resource management.

Dietary factors influencing protein utilization: a review.

Utilization of dietary protein depends not only on the amino acid composition and the digestibility of the protein itself, but also upon the level of protein, feed intake, energy, fibre, and other constituents in the feed. On the other hand, the animal species, sex, age and health status may also play an important role. A deeper understanding of these factors helps to utilize feedstuffs as a protein source more efficiently.
