The degree to which diagnostic, preventive, therapeutic or other action or actions achieves the intended result. Effectiveness requires a consideration of outcomes to measure. It does not require consideration of the cost of the action, although one way of comparing the effectiveness of actions with the same or similar intended results is to compare the ratios of their effectiveness to their costs. The Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act requires prior demonstration of effectiveness for most drugs marketed for human use. No similar requirement exists for most other medical action paid for or regulated under Federal or State law. Usually synonymous with efficacy in common use.<\/p>\n
