Area of Science:

  • Health Economics
  • Palliative Care Services
  • Cost Analysis

Background:

  • Palliative care is a cost-effective alternative to traditional treatment.
  • Measuring the cost of quality palliative care delivery remains a challenge.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a standardized, replicable method for measuring palliative care delivery costs.
  • To establish a framework for costing inpatient and home-based palliative care services.

Main Methods:

  • An interdisciplinary expert group defined quality palliative care standards.
  • Surveys identified payment practices and budgets from government agencies and providers.
  • A costing framework was designed to calculate unit costs for inpatient and home-based care.

Main Results:

  • A reliable framework for costing palliative care services was developed.
  • Inpatient palliative care cost was determined to be $96.58 per day in Romania.
  • Home-based palliative care costs were calculated at $30.37 per visit, $723.60 per month, and $1367.71 per episode of care.

Conclusions:

  • A standardized methodology for costing palliative care is presented.
  • The framework enables local cost substitution for system-relevant data.
  • This costing approach supported advocacy for a consistent payment system in Romania.
