We investigate the factors that influence the variance in hospital charges and inpatient care for kidney transplant cases in the US. Using the AHRQ's (Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality) HCUP's (Hospital Cost and Utilization Project) NIS (National Inpatient Sample) database, we find that variance in hospital charges and inpatient care is driven by patient demographics and hospital variables. We find that variance in hospital charges and inpatient care is determined by patient-specific factors including age, gender, race, and income, and hospital factors such as size, type, and location. Our results provide a deeper understanding of the non-clinical factors that impact hospital charges and inpatient care for kidney transplant patients.
我们研究了影响美国肾移植病例医院收费和住院护理差异的因素。通过使用美国医疗保健研究与质量局（AHRQ）的医疗成本和利用项目（HCUP）的全国住院患者样本（NIS）数据库，我们发现医院收费和住院护理的差异是由患者人口统计学特征和医院变量驱动的。我们发现，医院收费和住院护理的差异由患者特定因素决定，包括年龄、性别、种族和收入，以及医院因素，如规模、类型和位置。我们的研究结果为影响肾移植患者医院收费和住院护理的非临床因素提供了更深入的理解。
