Abstract
Health economics is the application of the discipline of economics to the topic of health, and pharmaco-economics is the specific application of the discipline as related to the evaluation of pharmaceutical products. Five types of analysis are used to assess the incremental cost-effectiveness of a drug or service. They are cost-consequence analysis (CCA), cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA), cost-benefit analysis (CBA), cost-minimisation analysis, and cost-utility analysis (CUA). The identification, measurement and valuation of resource items associated with drug therapy are important components of economic analysis. Careful attention should be paid to the choice of the analytical technique, the relevance of the comparator and the identification, measurement and valuation of resources, ensuring that the latter components are relevant to the stated viewpoint of the analysis. It is vital that pharmaceutical physicians understand the principles and evidentiary needs of health economic evaluations in order to work with the health economists in developing high-quality analyses.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
