That's not at all what it means. The cost of the system is almost independent of the usage rate of the system. The proper math is that they spent $5,575 per case advanced. Is that a reasonable cost?
- vharuck 8mo agoYour math doesn't include the hourly wages of the people who do the searches multiple by the time spent on them. Granted, I don't have that info, but I'm guessing it's not peanuts.
- zamadatix 8mo agoIt could be truly peanuts from something that happens automatically during entering things into the system anyways to something like multiple times the raw cost if it's something like 10+ minutes of manual work per average search.
