Costs analysis of radiotherapy for breast cancer in Indonesia: a comparison between reimbursement tariffs and actual costs
For both hospitals, the INA-CBGs tariffs for outpatient radiotherapy services for breast cancer were insufficient to fully cover the actual costs during the review period. Furthermore, the difference between the tariffs and the actual costs increased over the years, emphasizing the need for revision of the C-3-10-0 tariffs. It is crucial to ensure coverage of all actual costs to ensure the sustainability, accessibility, and availability of radiotherapy treatment for breast cancer patients in Indonesia.
