Abstract
The main issue for policy making in the evaluation of PACS tends to be that of societal efficacy. In other words, the policy maker wishes to know how much benefit has been achieved for how much cost (10). This question cannot be answered in the case of PAC systems. There is no existing PAC system, so no empiric evaluation has been done. Evaluations of sub-parts of such systems have only just begun.
