Title
Hospital charge of gynecological in-patients at Ramathibodi Hospital.
There have been few studies of hospital charge done in Thailand and that led us to be aware of health economics. In this cross sectional study, 182 gynecological in-patients admitted between July 1 and 31, 1990 were recruited. Mean hospital charge was 3,258.50 baht. The patients's employers bore the main financial burden (48%). The hospital bore 9 per cent of this total financial burden, and the rest (44%) was self paid. The amount of hospital charge may depend on some factors. Further study of this subject should be conducted.
