COSTS AND COST ANALYSIS

Abstract

Introduction. End-stage renal disease is a serious illness with major consequences in both health and healthcare expenditures. The growing number of patients with end-stage renal disease in developing countries will consume a greater proportion of healthcare budget. We aimed to assess the costs of HEMODIALYSIS and KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION in a renal care center in Sudan. Materials and Methods. We conducted a cross-sectional study to estimate the costs of KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION and compare those with the costs of HEMODIALYSIS per year. We enrolled 78 patients on regular HEMODIALYSIS for at least 2 years and 33 kidney transplant patients on regular follow-up at Gezira Hospital for Renal Diseases and Surgery in Sudan. Results. The annual cost of HEMODIALYSIS was found to be US $ 6847.00. The total cost of the first year after transplantation was US $ 14 825.04 and the cost of KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION after the first year was US $ 10 651.00. The total hospitalization days and absence from work were less in the transplant group.Conclusions. HEMODIALYSIS in Sudan is less expensive than transplantation.
