Considering place in the delivery of cost-effective services for Aboriginal people in rural and remote Northern Territory

维持透析是昂贵的，为生活在偏远社区的人们提供透析服务增加了相当大的成本。然而，人们对把人送到服务处而不是服务处给人的全部成本了解甚少，而且迄今尚未量化。本论文的目的是调查和增加对透析治疗的经济成本的知识，当所有的医院和相关的三级医疗保健是考虑。

Maintenance dialysis is expensive and providing dialysis services for people living in remote communities adds considerable costs. However, the full costs of taking people to services, rather than services to people, are poorly understood and have not been quantified to date. The aim of this thesis is to investigate and add to the knowledge on the economic costs of dialysis treatments when all hospital and associated tertiary health care is considered.
