How can you use “hcf” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
By including a weighting function we explicitly model heterogeneity in accessibility to treatment based on distance from the HCF.
We note that our OEAS does not produce perfect equality; however, our optimal strategy significantly improves equality in obtaining treatment over the two other allocation strategies that we analyzed for comparison: (i) ARVs allocated only to one HCF (in the largest city, Durban) (see Figure 3D and 3E), and (ii) equal quantities of ARVs allocated to each HCF throughout the province (see Figure 3G and 3H).
We calculate the “effective demand” of community i on HCF j to be the number of people with HIV in community i that will travel to HCF j for ARV regimes, namely, f ( d i,j ) I i . Thus, demand on HCFs for ARVs is reduced by the treatment accessibility function.
To determine how many ARVs should be allocated to each HCF, we first calculate how a given supply of ARVs will be distributed from each HCF to the surrounding communities in the catchment region.
Obviously, allocating to only one HCF (the first comparison strategy) could also be considered unequal because although the inter-quartile range is minimal, effectively only one community (Durban) receives ARVs.
