The experimentation and implementation phases of
the TDABC model in the neurosurgery MVD and urology
BPH pilots have succeeded in engaging health care
providers, not only within these departments but also
throughout the organization, in process assessment and

great potential to steer cost-conscious care-delivery transformation
and health system performance optimization.
