| Abstract (English): |
Objectives: To quantify the operational costs of a municipal public hospital in the city of São Paulo (Brazil) and to identify factors that led to cost increases during the year of 2016 using the absorption method. Methods: This was a retrospective study conducted between January and December of 2016 at Vila Santa Catarina Municipal Hospital, a public tertiary hospital in São Paulo, Brazil. Results: We identified and analyzed a total of 8702 inpatient data. Average day cost per patient was US$ 949, with a median of US$ 1,825, and a total operating cost of US$ 48,743,847. Transplant patients showed the highest median costs, while pregnant women had the lowest median costs, 69.9% of the 8,702 hospitalized patients was above the mean cost of US$ 3,068 registered for 2016. Age was associated with a 6.6% increase in cost for each one-year increase in age, while the cost associated with female patients was 1.1 times that of men. Patients who died in the hospital were 8 times more likely to cost more than patients who were discharged from the hospital. Oncology, transplant, and clinical-surgical patients had 18.8 times the cost of patients in the maternity unit, respectively. Conclusion: We identify the operating costs of the Vila Santa Catarina Municipal Hospital, where the average cost for the operation of the unit was US$ 133.179. The cost per patient was US$ 1,825.91. We also concluded as to the second objective that the cost increase factors were age and death. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |

Métodos: Estudo retrospectivo realizado entre janeiro e dezembro de 2016 no Hospital Municipal Vila Santa Catarina, um hospital público terciário em São Paulo, Brasil. Resultados: Identificamos e analisamos um total de 8.702 dados de pacientes internados. O custo médio paciente-dia foi de US$ 949, com mediana de US$ 1.825 e um custo operacional de US$ 48.743.847. O transplante teve os maiores custos médios, enquanto as gestantes apresentaram os menores, 69,9% dos 8.702 pacientes hospitalizados estavam acima do custo médio de US $ 3.068 registrado em 2016. A idade foi associada a um aumento de 6,6% no custo para cada aumento de um ano na idade, enquanto o custo associado ao sexo feminino pacientes foi 1,1 vez maior do que os homens. Os pacientes que morreram no hospital tiveram uma probabilidade 8 vezes maior de custar mais do que os pacientes que receberam alta do hospital. Pacientes oncológicos, transplantes e clínico-cirúrgicos apresentaram 18,8 vezes o custo dos pacientes na maternidade, respectivamente. Conclusão: Identificamos os custos operacionais do Hospital Municipal de Vila Santa Catarina, onde o custo médio para a operação da unidade foi de US$ 133.179. O custo por paciente foi de US$ 1.825,91. Também concluímos quanto ao segundo objetivo que os fatores de aumento de custo foram idade e morte. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
