Choose an answer

Existing filtering systems programs have been private and voluntary, with citizen participation ranging from 25 percent in some communities to 70 percent in others

Although the new cochleae manufactured by Medotech will cost more than twice as much as the cochlear implants now in use, Medotech implants should still be cost-effective. Not only will surgery and recovery time be reduced, but Medotech cochlear replacements should last longer, thereby reducing the need for further hospital stays.

Q:Which of the following must be studied in order to evaluate the argument presented above?

Choose an answer

The amount of time a patient spends in surgery versus the amount of time spent recovering from surgery.

The amount by which the cost of producing Medotech cochlear replacements has declined with the introduction of the new technique for producing them

The degree to which the use of Medotech cochlear replacements is likely to reduce the need for repeat surgery when compared with the use of the replacements now in use.

The degree to which the use of Medotech replacements are more carefully manufactured than are the replacements now in use
