This publication, funded by the Department of Health and now in its 18th year, was developed with the aim of bringing together information about the costs of health and social care in a way that is transparent and compatible. Supported by an Advisory Group comprising Department of Health personnel, SCIE representatives as well as some of the foremost academics working in health and social care economics, it brings together information from a variety of sources to estimate the most up-to-date nationally-applicable unit costs for a wide range of health and social care services in England. Based in economic theory, the volumes present the unit costs and the estimation methods used, provide references for data sources and other cost-related research. Section I covers services used by a particular client group, and includes services for older people, people with mental health problems, people who misuse drugs/alcohol, people with learning disabilities, younger adults with physical and sensory impairments, services for children and their families, hospitals, and care packages. Sections II, III and IV deal with the unit costs of professionals. The publication also includes four articles on: the costs of short break provision for disabled children; the costs of the Partnerships of Older People Project; the cost of a specialised form of cognitive behavioural therapy used to treat post-traumatic stress disorder; and the cost of long term care.
