老年人福尔斯跌倒是一个常见的、严重的和日益严重的公共卫生问题。福尔斯经常导致治疗福尔斯相关损伤的大量医疗支出。随着人口老龄化，预计福尔斯跌伤的数量和由此产生的支出都将大幅增加。这项研究估计了医疗费用归因于老年人福尔斯使用的方法，可以每年更新，以跟踪这些支出随着时间的推移。2015年，致命性和非致命性福尔斯跌倒造成的医疗费用估计约为500亿美元。对于非致命的福尔斯摔倒，医疗保险支付了大约289亿美元，医疗补助支付了87亿美元，私人和其他支付者支付了120亿美元。据估计，致命福尔斯跌倒的总医疗支出为7.54亿美元。衡量可归因于福尔斯的医疗费用将提供有关问题严重程度和有效预防战略潜在财务影响的重要信息。
Older adult falls are a common, serious, and growing public health problem. Falls often result in substantial medical expenditures to treat falls related injuries. With the aging of the population, both the number of falls injuries and the resulting expenditures are expected to increase substantially. This study estimated the medical expenditures attributable to older adult falls using a methodology that can be updated annually to track these expenditures over time. In 2015, the estimated medical costs attributable to both fatal and nonfatal falls was approximately $50.0 billion. For nonfatal falls, Medicare paid approximately $28.9 billion, Medicaid $8.7 billion and private and other payers $12.0 billion. Overall medical spending for fatal falls was estimated to be $754 million. Measuring the medical costs attributable to falls will provide vital information about the magnitude of the problem and the potential financial impact of effective prevention strategies.
