Appendix
country by reducing digestive disease premature mortality by 25%, 50% and 75% were
estimated.
As detailed above, several assumptions were made to calculate the cost estimates. The
results are a function of the discount rate chosen, which was assumed to be 3% for all
countries. The accuracy of the cost estimates also depends on the quality of the data
available, and discrepancies between countries may exist due to differences in the way in
which countries define and report data.
INPATIENT COSTS
The economic cost of inpatient health service delivery for digestive diseases was estimated as
the product of hospital bed-days for digestive diseases and WHO unit costs for inpatient
service delivery. Estimates were calculated for 2019 or most recent year available, for 31 UEG
member countries.
Measures and data sources
Annual hospital inpatient discharge counts and average length of stay, by country and
diagnosis, were extracted from OECD and Eurostat databases (Table 18). Diagnosis refers to
the principal diagnosis, i.e., the main condition diagnosed at the end of hospitalisation.
Diagnostic categories are based on the International Shortlist for Hospital Morbidity
Tabulation (ISHMT) (see Table 19 for digestive disease categories). Country-specific unit costs
for inpatient service delivery per hospital bed-day are estimated and published by the WHO.
Inpatient data provided by OECD and Eurostat are largely based on administrative data
sources. The comparability of the data across different countries may be limited due to
differences in the way in which healthcare provision is organised in countries, and which
information is available to and collected by healthcare institutions.163 For details per country
