Overview

CDH is primarily treated with extensive surgical intervention which can be very expensive. Annual costs increase with the addition of ECMO. The average cost is USD $137,000 per patient and the estimated cost of CDH per year in the United States alone is more than USD $230 million.

Cost-effectiveness of Therapy

  • Average cost: USD $137,000 per patient
  • Addition of ECMO: USD $156,499.90 per patient[1]
  • Cost for CDH survivors without ECMO: USD $98,000[2]
  • Cost for CDH survivors with ECMO: USD $365,000
  • Estimated cost of CDH per year in the United States: more than USD $230 million
