Text A. The Cost of an Operation
The employment of modern achievements in medicine costs much.
The public health allocations in the USSR have been increasing since the establishment of the Soviet power. At one of the press-conferences the well- known Soviet surgeon academician В. V. Petrovsky spoke about such operations performed in his clinic in which 14 highly qualified specialists took part. It must cost very much. But how much? Let us count.
The patient was Vladimir Sorokin. The diagnosis was mitral valve defect with a considerable impairment of blood circulation.
The patient stayed in the hospital for 64 days — of which 25 before the operation, and 39 after it.
The cost of the patient’s stay for 25 days before the operation when all the examinations were performed made about 170 roubles. The cost of the operation and the drugs used during it together with the cost of the plasma and blood which were transfused to the patient and the cost of the treatment given to the patient after the operation made 970 roubles more. The doctors and the nurses who treated the patient received their wages. The patient received the sick- leave pay for three months, so the total cost of the treatment which the patient received at the State expense was about 1,700 roubles.
During the whole period of the patient’s hospitalization he as well as his relatives thought only about the successful outcome of the treatment.
The problem of medical aid expenses has been decided by our Government. The Soviet doctors always do their best to save the life of their patients.
