Summary
Critics of hyperbaric oxygen treatment often argue by financial demands of treatment and additional costs. However, a growing number of cost effectiveness studies are demonstrating the opposite. Most of individual cost effectiveness studies, pharmaco-economic analysis, systematic reviews and health technology assessment studies agree that the implementation of hyperbaric oxygen therapy the treatment process delivers proven cost savings through its considerable financial costs. Many of the studies agreed in one – there is a reduction of costs in connection with the reduction of hospitalization days, the amount of coverage, reducing the cost of care for patients with amputations in the health and social system. Although there is sufficient evidence both cost effectiveness and clinical efficiency across the spectrum of indications, there are many places throughout the country where patients due to the absence of hyperbaric facilities have not access to this treatment modality.
