Hospital Costs of Trauma Admissions in Canada, 2000-2001

Injuries, which are considered largely preventable, pose an economic burden to society, including hospital systems. In March 2002 the Ontario Trauma Registry (OTR) estimated that the hospital costs of Ontario trauma admissions in 1999-2000 exceeded $433 million. Lacking comprehensive national and provincial cost estimates, this report expands upon the OTR study by estimating the hospital costs associated with trauma admissions in Canada that occurred in fiscal year 2000 (April 1, 2000 through March 31, 2001).

Information about injury hospitalizations is drawn from the National Trauma Registry Minimal Data Set (NTR MDS), which is a subset of the Hospital Morbidity Database (HMDB). The Canadian Institute for Health Information (CIHI) manages both these databases. The source of hospital cost information is the Ontario Case Costing Initiative (OCCI), which is an initiative of the Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care.
