Abstract
Purpose: : Main objective of this study is to assess and evaluate resourceuse in outpatient treatment of cystic fibrosis (CF) in Germany and to comparethis with current reimbursement. Methods: Results: Conclusion: Key Words: MedKlin 2009;104:529-35. Methods: : Outpatient treatment was evaluated in sevendifferent CF centers.Clinical patient data, resource use, and time consumptionwere recorded in 2006. A micro-costing approach was used to price resource usedata. Results: : Mean costs of 488 Euros per patient (n = 326) and quarteroccurred. Remuneration (252 Euros per patient/quarter) covered only 52% of thetotal costs. Furthermore, a considerable time and financial burden for patientsas well as decreasing quality of life with increasing age were found. Costs formedication came to 21,604 Euros per patient/year. Conclusion: : Human resourcesin German CF centers today already are below the requirements set by theEuropean consensus for standards of CF care. It will be crucial in assuring ahigh level of patient care to reach a cost-covering reimbursement scheme in Germany.
