The implications of AIDS for health care are unknown. Precise data about the extent to which patients appeal to hospital health care facilities and resulting costs are not available, mainly due to the absence of suitable methods for the registration of demographic, medical and financial data on individual patients in hospitals. In this paper we present the preliminary results of application of a new system which allows such a detailed collection and analysis of data. By evaluating patients with HIV infections treated in the University Hospital Utrecht between January 1, 1987 and July 1, 1988, the mean yearly costs of in- and outpatient treatment of a patient with AIDS (CDC-IV) were found to be Dfl. 40,267.-; those of treatment of patients with other HIV infections ranged from Dfl. 3,629.-(CDC-III) to Dfl. 5,115.-(CDC-II). Comparison of the mean costs for patients who died in that period with those for patients who did not, reveals that patients dead of AIDS would have cost Dfl. 75,289.-yearly and those with AIDS who were alive at July 1, 1988 Dfl. 27,308.-.
