Abstract

Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) is one of the leading cardiovascular diseases causing death in developed and developing countries, including Vietnam. Coronary intervention is a common treatment method for ACS, but it has high treatment costs that cause a significant economic burden for individuals and the health system. The study was conducted using a cross-sectional descriptive design based on medical records of ACS patients at the Ho Chi Minh City Heart Institute that met the sampling criteria during the sampling period. The survey of 146 medical records that met the criteria revealed that the average direct medical cost was 84.861.931 VND (95% CI: 73.390.073 – 96.333.789 VND). In the structure of direct medical costs, costs of medical supplies and diagnostic imaging account for the highest proportion (66% and 22%, respectively). Health insurance coverage is the same as what patients pay (51%) and 48%, respectively. In patients with acute coronary syndrome, the duration of treatment is associated with the cost of coronary intervention treatment.
