BACKGROUND: Single disease payment program based on clinical pathway (CP-based SDP) plays an increasingly important role in reducing health expenditure in china and there is a clear need to explore the scheme from different perspectives. This study aimed at evaluating the effect of the scheme in rural county public hospitals within Anhui, a typical province of China,using uterine leiomyoma as an example.
METHODS: The study data were extracted from the data platform of the New Rural Cooperative Medical Office of Anhui Province using stratified-random sampling. Means, constituent ratios and coefficients of variations were calculated and/or compared between control versus experiment groups and between different years.
RESULTS: The total hospitalization expenditure (per-time) dropped from 919.08 ± 274.92 USD to 834.91 ± 225.29 USD and length of hospital stay reduced from 9.96 ± 2.39 days to 8.83 ± 1.95 days(P < 0.01), after CP-based SDP had implemented. The yearly total hospitalization expenditure manifested an atypical U-shaped trend. Medicine expense, nursing expense, assay cost and treatment cost reduced; while the fee of operation and examination increased (P < 0.05). The expense constituent ratios of medicine, assay and treatment decreased with the medicine expense dropped the most (by 4.4%). The expense constituent ratios of materials, ward, operation, examination and anesthetic increased,with the examination fee elevated the most (by 3.9%).The coefficient of variation(CVs) of treatment cost declined the most (- 0.360); while the CV of materials expense increased the most (0.186).
CONCLUSION: There existed huge discrepancies in inpatient care for uterine leiomyoma patients. Implementation of CP-based SDP can help not only in controlling hospitalization costs of uterine leiomyoma in county-level hospitals but also in standardizing the diagnosis and treatment procedures.
