TY - JOUR AU - Łyszczarz, Błażej PY - 2018 DA - 2018/09/19 TI - Indirect costs and public finance consequences of heart failure in Poland, 2012–2015 JO - BMC Public Health SP - 1130 VL - 18 IS - 1 AB - As a consequence of unfavourable epidemiological trends and the development of disease management, the economic aspects of heart failure (HF) have become more and more important. The costs of treatment (direct costs) appear to be the most frequently addressed topic in the economic research on HF; however, less is known about productivity losses (indirect costs) and the public finance burden attributable to the disease. Therefore, the aim of this study was to estimate the indirect costs and public finance consequences of HF in Poland in the period 2012–2015.
