Gott et al, 2008
Providing care closer to home and preventing inappropriate hospital admissions is a current
NHS priority (DoH, 2006b). This study will explore the extent to which this is in line with
the views and preferences of older people with palliative care needs and will explore the economic impact of avoidable hospital
admissions within an end of life context.

To avoid parking costs, sisters Marie and Jodie took turns sitting in the car
whilst their mother was dying because they could not pay for
parking.

Jacinda and her partner ate their children’s leftovers because they could not afford their food bill.

because he could not afford to pay for all of it in one go.

John sold his house because he had been unable to work whilst caring for
his wife and could no longer afford the mortgage.
Marie ‘maxed out’ her credit cards and was left with debts she could not
pay after her mother died.

Annie: I lost eleven years of my working life. I gave up a paid job to look after my husband. I have a heart condition now.Barbara: That’s part of being married. I mean, we bring up kids, too.Annie: Oh true, true.

How are these costs being
exacerbated in palliative care
practice, policy and research?

They don’t come out and give you a brochure and say, ‘Here you go, here’s an application form, fill it in and you’ll get some money’. No, you’ve got to ask so that can sometimes be extremely frustrating because you don’t know how you’re going to survive this financially.

Gardiner et al, in press.
‘Informal and family care’ was identified as a key cost domain; however very few economic evaluations have included this perspective and there is limited methodological guidance which incorporates this viewpoint.
