Outline of Final Research Achievements

Social hospitalization is the unnecessary inpatient service use caused by a shortage of long-term care services or family caregivers. The study aim is to clarify the temporal transition in nationwide social hospitalization.
Inpatients aged 65 or older in general and long-term care beds from 1996 to 2008 were the focus of the study. The cost of social hospitalization increased from 422.8 billion yen in 1996 to 668.4 billion yen in 2002. After this, the cost started to decreased from 599.9 billion yen in 2005 to 391.1 billion yen in 2008.
