Proposed Commercial Applications:The principal commercial opportunity is the licensing of the CAMC for Heart Failure software to managed care organizations, particularly those undertaking Medicare and Medicaid capitation risk contracts. If, for example, LG&A were to receive $25 per month in fees (the cost of a new music CD) and were to achieve even a small market share among individuals with heart failure (e.g., 50,000 persons), then it would have a gross income of $15.0 million per year.
