Deaths and disabilities due to heart disease and stroke in 1998 cost the Nation $286.5 billion. This cost, which includes lost productivity as well as health expenditures, has a profound impact on the Nation’s health care system. Not only does this cost promise to increase as baby boomers age and the community of people living with heart disease or stroke continues to expand, but all the costs associated with delaying death from heart disease (including the fees for physicians and other professionals, the cost of hospital and nursing home care, expensive medications, home health, and other medical durables) will compound the Nation’s economic burden. While medicines and treatments are effective, they are expensive; it would be more cost-effective to prevent the disease in the first place. For example, for one person with heart disease, costs for diagnostic tests, surgery, hospital and doctors’ visits, physical therapy, and drugs can add up to $121,200 over 20 years. For those needing surgery or procedures and ongoing care, heart disease and stroke can cost more than $4.8 million over a lifetime. The cost in terms of human suffering and death can never be assessed.
What States carry the highest death rates due to heart disease?
New York has the highest death rate due to heart disease of any other State, with 172.5 deaths per 100,000 compared to the Nation’s 131 deaths per 100,000. Missouri ranks 4th with 155.7 deaths per 100,000; Kentucky ranks 7th, with 146.3 deaths per 100,000; and South Carolina ranks 10th with 142.4 deaths per 100,000.
