[The cost of alcoholism in a hospital medical department (author's transl)].
The authors evaluated the costs involved when alcoholic patients were admitted to a hospital medical department. Costs which were identical for all patients, such as basic services and hospitalization fees, were discounted, and only those for individual investigations and treatment were calculated. These costs were then compared with the average daily costs for non-alcoholic patients in the same department over the same period. The results are discussed in relation to other similar studies.
