Management of formal and informal care of people with dementia – situation in the Czech Republic

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Dementia represents a significant burden for the economic systems of developed countries. The reason is an increasing trend of a number of elderly people aged 65 and 80 years and specifically these years are critical for the incidence of dementia since this disease rises with aging. The purpose of this study is to specify the economic burden of care of people with dementia in the area of formal and informal care. This study particularly focuses on the direct costs which include treatment, drugs, formal and informal care. The study concentrates on the European countries where the issue of aging population and provision of care about the people with dementia is very topical nowadays. This study also presents a case study, individual items of costs in one of the countries of central Europe-Czech Republic where the burden is expected to be higher than in many western countries. The methods include a method of literature review, analysis of web pages of day care centers and institutional facilities in the European countries with the purpose to obtain information about the costs of formal care. The costs specifications are based on Drummond’s methodology and the costs are divided into direct and indirect. The result shows that the treatment costs are 2,393.14 EUR, annual costs of formal care are 5,403 EUR on average and annual costs of informal care are 9,326.4 EUR in the Czech Republic.
