(8)2.2 What types of costs would need to be considered in a cost-effectiveness analysis of this intervention? Give specific examples for each type of cost. (4)2.3 Discuss the role of quantification in ensuring the successful procurement, distribution, and use of Lenacapavir. (6)2.4 Recommend the most appropriate procurement method for Lenacapavir. In your answer, describe the recommended procurement method (2),justify why it is suitable in this context (2),explain two potential challenges that would need to be managed for successful implementation (2)propose two strategies to mitigate these potential challenge(2)
QUESTION 1 (20 mаrks)As the phаrmаcy manager at an academic hоspital, yоu are respоnsible for ensuring the rational use of medicines at the hospital.
