Abstract:
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:There is paucity of studies on the predictors of bladder cancer (BC) management costs. We aimed to determine predictors of costs associated with radical cystectomy (RC) for BC. METHODS:We conducted a retrospective analysis in a cohort of 2,759 patients who underwent RC for BC between 2000 and 2009. We analyzed predictors of pre-surgery, RC, post-surgery, and total costs. The following variables were considered as potential predictors: age, gender, hospital/surgeon case load, academic hospital, and geo-administrative region. Multivariate linear regression was used to determine predictors. RESULTS:Predictors of pre-surgery costs were: age (β = 808.64, P < 0.0001) and having surgery in an academic hospital (β = 511.42, P = 0.003). Increased RC costs were associated with age (β = 196.73, P = 0.0006), hospital/surgeon annual load (β = 484.45 and β = 254.21, P < 0.0001, respectively). Having surgery in academic hospitals and geographic region were significant predictors of low RC costs (β = -1085.82 and β = -449.31, P < 0.0001, respectively). Increasing age and the presence of post-operative complications were predictors of high post-operative costs (β = 623.48, β = 5781.44, P = 0.01, respectively), while hospital load was associated with low post-surgery costs (β = -949.79, P < 0.0001). CONCLUSION:Patients' age and surgery performed by high-volume health providers were predictive factors of high RC costs. Low RC costs were associated with surgeries performed in academic hospitals.
