OBJECTIVES: Hospitalisation for congestive heart failure (CHF) was reported to be 1648 cases for every 100 000 patient claims in 2014 in the Philippines; however, there are no data regarding its economic impact. This study determined CHF hospitalisation cost and its total economic burden. It compared the healthcare-related hospitalisation cost from the societal perspective with the payer's perspective, the Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth).
METHODS: This is a cost analysis study. Data were obtained from representative government/private hospitals and a drugstore in all regions of the country. Healthcare costs included cost of diagnostics/treatment, professional fees and other CHF-related hospital charges, while non-healthcare costs included production losses, transportation and food expenses.
RESULTS: The overall mean healthcare-related cost for CHF hospitalisation (class III) in government hospitals in the Philippines in 2014 was PHP19 340-PHP28 220 (US$436-US$636). In private hospitals, it was PHP28 370-PHP41 800 (US$639-US$941). In comparison, PhilHealth's coverage/CHF case rate payment is PHP15 700 (US$354). The mean non-healthcare cost was PHP10 700-PHP14 600 (US$241-US$329). Using PhilHealth's case rate payment and the prevalence of CHF hospitalisation in 2014, the total economic burden was PHP691 522 200 (US$15 574 824). Using the study results on healthcare-related cost meant that the total economic burden for CHF hospitalisation would instead be PHP851 850 000-PHP1 841 563 000 (US$19 185 811-US$41 476 644).
CONCLUSIONS: The calculated healthcare-related hospitalisation cost for CHF in the Philippines in 2014 demonstrates the disparity between the actual cost and PhilHealth's coverage. This implies a need for policymakers to review its coverage to make healthcare delivery affordable.
