  • Title: [The cost of the treatment of surgical patients].
    Author: Hartwich A, Nowak M.
    Journal: Wiad Lek; 2002; 55 Suppl 1(Pt 2):703-7. PubMed ID: 17474587.
    Abstract:
    The paper presents cost-benefit analysis of the treatment at the Department of General Surgery of the L. Rydygier's Regional Specialized Hospital in the period from 1997 to 2001. The analysis is based on the data from the Department of Planning and Analyses of the hospital and on the data preserved at the ward. Average person-per-day cost, total cost of hospitalization and cost structure (direct, indirect, managerial costs and costs of medical procedures) were investigated. The analyses showed that the person-per-day cost did not change significantly during the study period (329 PLN vs. 348 PLN), but total cost of hospitalization was significantly reduced from 4548 PLN in 1997 to 3354 PLN in 2001.
