The authors argue that the development of less costly alternatives to widely used expensive technologies (for example, coronary artery bypass, transurethral prostatectomies, and cholecystectomies) have become preferred targets for research and development by drug and medical device manufacturers. Lower-cost alternatives include, respectively, coronary angioplasty, use of drugs and radioactive seeds for the treatment of prostate cancer, and laparoscopic cholecystectomy for the treatment of gall bladder disease. However, they also caution that while such new procedures may reduce the unit costs of specific medical interventions, aggregate costs may continue to rise as diffusion of the technologies leads to wider use, to the treatment of high-risk persons who prior to the change in technology were ineligible for treatment, and to other applications for the technologies.
