ICRH Strategic Plan 2013-2016 – Long descriptions

Figure 2: Cost/Burden of disease

Musculoskeletal diseases was the most costly disease in 2000. The total costs for musculoskeletal diseases included $3.9 billion for direct costs and $18.4 billion for indirect costs. After cardiovascular diseases (CVD), the third highest total cost among all diagnostic categories was for neuropsychiatric conditions ($9.7 billion for direct costs and $10.6 billion for indirect costs) followed by malignant neoplasms ($2.6 billion for direct costs and $14.8 billion for indirect costs). Other diagnostic categories included injuries, which contributed $14.8 billion to the total cost, and diseases and conditions such as digestive diseases, respiratory diseases, sense organ diseases, and respiratory infections, which contributed to less than $9 billion dollars each to the total cost.

These data were based on the total cost of illness of $147.9 billon. Direct costs include hospitals, drugs, and physicians. Expenditures for care in other institutions and additional direct health expenditures were not included.

Indirect costs include mortality, long-term disability, and short-term disability, but not all diagnostic categories include short-term disability costs. The six diagnostic categories that include short-term disability costs are CVD, musculoskeletal diseases, neuropsychiatric conditions, digestive diseases, respiratory diseases, and respiratory infections.
