[Direct hospitalization costs associated with chronic Hepatitis C in the Valencian Community in 2013].

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:Hospital costs associated with Chronic Hepatitis C (HCC) arise in the final stages of the disease. Its quantification is very helpful in order to estimate and check the burden of the disease and to make financial decisions for new antivirals. The highest costs are due to the decompensation of cirrosis. METHODS:Cross-sectional observational study of hospital costs of HCC diagnoses in the Valencian Community in 2013 (n= 4,486 hospital discharges). Information source: Minimum basic set of data/ Basic Minimum Data Set. The costs were considered according to the rates established for the DRG (Diagnosis related group) associated with the episodes with diagnosis of hepatitis C. The average survival of patients since the onset of the decom- pensation of their cirrhosis was estimated by a Markov model, according to the probabilities of evolution of the disease existing in Literatura. RESULTS:There were 4,486 hospital episodes, 1,108 due to complications of HCC, which generated 6,713 stays, readmission rate of 28.2% and mortality of 10.2%. The hospital cost amounted to 8,788,593EUR: 3,306,333EUR corresponded to Cirrhosis (5,273EUR/patient); 1,060,521EUR to Carcinoma (6,350EUR/ patient) and 2,962,873EUR to transplantation (70,544EUR/paciente. Comorbidity was 1,458,866EUR. These costs are maintai- ned for an average of 4 years once the cirrhosis decompensation begins. CONCLUSIONS:Cirrhosis due to HCC generates a very high hospitalization's costs. The methodology used in the estimation of these costs from the DRG can be very useful to evaluate the trend and economic impact of this disease. OBJETIVO:Los costes hospitalarios asociados a la Hepatitis Crónica C (HCC) surgen en los estadíos finales de la enfermedad. Su cuantificación es de gran utilidad para estimar la carga de la enfermedad y establecer decisiones de financiación de los nuevos antivirales. Los costes más elevados son motivados por la descompensación de la cirrosis. METODOS:Estudio observacional de corte transversal de los costes hospitalarios de episodios con diagnóstico de HCC en la Comunidad Valenciana en 2013. Fuente de información: Conjunto mínimo básico de datos. Se estimaron los costes según las tarifas establecidas para los GRD (Grupos relacionados por el diagnóstico) asociados a los episodios con diagnóstico de hepatitis C. La supervivencia media de los pacientes desde que se inició la descompensación de su cirrosis se estimó mediante un modelo de Markov, según las probabilidades de evolución de la enfermedad existentes en la literatura. RESULTADOS:Se registraron 4.486 episodios de hospitalización con diagnóstico de HCC, 1.108 fueron debidos a complicaciones de la HCC que generaron 6.713 estancias, tasa de reingresos del 28,2 % y mortalidad del 10,2%. El coste hospitalario ascendió a 8.788.593EUR: 3.306.333EUR correspondieron a Cirrosis (5.273EUR/paciente); 1.060.521EUR a Carcinoma (6.350EUR/ paciente) y 2.962.873EUR a trasplante (70.544EUR/paciente). La comorbilidad por Hepatitis C supuso 1.458.866EUR. Estos costes se mantienen durante una media de 4 años una vez comienza la descompensación de la cirrosis. CONCLUSIONES:La cirrosis por HCC genera un coste muy elevado por hospitalización, la metodología utilizada en la estimación de estos costes a partir de los GRD puede ser de gran utilidad para evaluar la tendencia e impacto económico de esta enfermedad.
