Abstract
Background: India faces over 220 000 lakh new kidney failure cases annually, requiring approximately 34 million dialysis sessions, creating a significant economic burden on the healthcare system. This study estimates the costs of providing hemodialysis (HD) and Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD) under a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) in a tertiary hospital.
Methods: Economic health system costs (October 2021-2022) were estimated using a bottom-up approach. Resources consumed were identified, measured, and valued. Capital costs were annualized and discounted at 3%. Sensitivity analysis assessed the impact of variations in input costs.
Results: The total annual economic cost for HD (n = 103) under PPP was INR 32 611 618 (USD 393 432), and for CAPD (n = 12) was INR 4 103 781 (USD 49 509). The annual cost per beneficiary for HD and CAPD was INR 316 618 (USD 3820) and INR 341 979 (USD 4126), respectively. Unit cost per HD session was INR 1856 (USD 22) and per CAPD exchange was INR 323 (USD 4).
Conclusion: This study provides detailed costs of HD and CAPD services under PPP, offering insights for expanding dialysis services under the Pradhan Mantri National Dialysis Programme and supporting cost-effectiveness analysis for resource allocation.
