Social costs of smoking in the Czech Republic
Original language description
The article estimates the social costs of smoking in the Czech Republic using the prevalence-based, cost-of-illness approach. This approach assesses the costs as the sum of direct (healthcare) costs and indirect costs (productivity losses due to mortality and morbidity). The costs of healthcare utilization and pharmacotherapy in direct costs, and the costs of absenteeism, presenteeism, and premature mortality in indirect costs, are included. The costs are estimated as 2110.6 million EUR (0.94% of GDP) in 2019. Despite the declining prevalence of smoking in the Czech Republic, the social costs are considerable and investments into strategies to reduce smoking continue to be needed.
