Disease PreventionDisease Prevention——Disease Control Disease Control SummarySummary
Compensation improves disease reporting which Compensation improves disease reporting which is a good thing, but too much compensation can is a good thing, but too much compensation can result in reduced biosecurity and less than result in reduced biosecurity and less than optimal disease preventionoptimal disease prevention“One of the most difficult challenges in designing “One of the most difficult challenges in designing mechanisms that address the risks posed by mechanisms that address the risks posed by contagious livestock disease is the potential contagious livestock disease is the potential conflict between encouraging producer herd conflict between encouraging producer herd health management and biosecurity measures health management and biosecurity measures while maintaining incentives for early disclosure while maintaining incentives for early disclosure of health problems.” of health problems.” –– Gramig, Barnett, Skees & Gramig, Barnett, Skees & Black, 2006Black, 2006
