Hospital costs--the medical student component. 1977

R R Andrew, and M H Nehrmann

A study of indirect costs which could be attributed to undergraduate teaching in a large affiliated teaching hospital has shown that they are very small. Thus direct university costs in 1975 were $1,800,000 (7-6% of all expenditure at the hospital); indirect costs were $41,000 (approximately 0-2% of the hospital expenditure). It is concluded that the 45% difference in bed costs per day between teaching and non-teaching hospitals from a previous investigation is therefore not the result of the clinical school indirect demands on hospital expenditure.
