Abstract:
Objective To analyze the factors influencing hospitalization costs of 1316 lung cancer patients in a tertiary traditional Chinese medicine hospital in Guangxi from 2020 to 2023,and to provide a reference for reducing hospitalization costs for lung cancer patients.Methods Data from the medical record home pages of 1316 patients with a primary diagnosis of lung cancer admitted to a tertiary traditional Chinese medicine hospital in Guangxi between January 1,2020,and December 31,2023,were retrieved.Descriptive statistics and multiple linear regression were used to analyze the hospitalization costs of lung cancer patients.Results The age of lung cancer patients was concentrated in the 45-64 years group(accounting for 53.80％),with a majority being male(59.57％).In the composition of hospitalization costs for lung cancer patients,Western medicine costs ac-counted for the largest proportion at 31.62％,while traditional Chinese medicine costs accounted for 9.70％.Multiple linear re-gression analysis showed that length of hospital stay,whether surgery was performed,whether a transfer between departments oc-curred,and ethnicity were influencing factors of hospitalization costs(P＜0.05).Conclusion The composition of hospitaliza-tion costs for lung cancer patients is unreasonable,and the proportion of medication costs needs optimization.Hospitalization costs for lung cancer patients can be reduced by controlling the length of hospital stay and strengthening screening and prevention efforts for middle-aged male populations to achieve early diagnosis and treatment.
