There are a number of different costs associated with the development and operation of telemedicine services. A model is proposed in order to assist in strengthening the evidence base for telemedicine. It includes the following components: project establishment costs; equipment costs; maintenance costs; communication costs; staffing costs. All need to be considered in arriving at an annual cost figure for operating a telemedicine service. The inclusion of all these costs, prepared in the standard manner outlined in the model, will ensure that a realistic cost figure is available when evaluating the cost-effectiveness of a telemedicine service.
远程医疗服务的开发和运营涉及许多不同的成本。为了帮助加强远程医疗的证据基础,提出了一个模型。它包括以下组成部分:项目设立成本;设备成本;维护成本;通信成本;人员成本。在得出远程医疗服务的年度运营成本数字时,所有这些都需要考虑在内。按照该模型概述的标准方式纳入所有这些成本,将确保在评估远程医疗服务的成本效益时能够获得实际的成本数字。
