COST OF RUNNING DIALYSIS IN FREELY ASSOCIATED STATES FNU & PIHOA JOINT STUDY background Non-communicable diseases as one of the top priorities for the entire world. (World Health Organization, 2012) Seoul Declaration and Honiara Communique on the crisis of non-communicable diseases in the region, emphasise the importance of collective and intensive efforts for the prevention and control of these diseases. (World Health Organization, 2012) Prevalence of renal diseases among the indigenous people of Oceania is also on the increase. (Weil & Nelson, 2006) Non-communicable diseases are becoming a leading cause of disability and death in the Western Pacific Region. (World Health Organization, 2012) Western Pacific region is predicted to contribute as the most deaths due to non-communicable diseases by 12.3 million deaths in 2020 followed by South-East Asia with 10.4 million deaths in the same year. (World Health Organization, 2012) Age-standardized prevalence of insufficient physical activity in adults 15+ years, comparable estimates, Western Pacific Region, 2008 Total adult (15+ years of age) per capita consumption of pure alcohol (litres) for both sexes, Western Pacific Region, 2008 Age-standardized prevalence of obesity in adults aged 20+ years, comparable country estimates, Western Pacific Region, 2008 Age-standardized prevalence of raised blood pressure in adults aged 25+ years, comparable country estimates, Western Pacific Region, 2008 Age-standardized prevalence of diabetes mellitus in adults aged 25+ years, comparable estimates, Western Pacific Region, 2008 Age-standardized prevalence of raised total cholesterol in adults aged 25 years, comparable country So what? FAS has a rampant NCD crisis. One of the outcomes of NCD crisis is that there will be large number of people requiring complicated healthcare services such as interventional cardiology, advanced nephology, operative ophthalmology, vascular surgery etc. One of the most serious burdens of disease due to NCDs is renal disease.

jurisdictions to cater to the impending demand Hybrid time solution of providing services to buy Keep things as they are and let off shore services cater to the demand/ increasing demand CONNS PROS Will make the people No additional burden very unhappy on the system Severe out of pocket People will obtain expenditure on services overseas services despite the government Patients who cannot afford transfer will not Will not create new receive services inequities Make people relocate overseas Maintain the inequities between the haves and have-nots Will not sustain after 2017 Provide dialysis services in the jurisdictions to cater to the impending demand PROS Patients are going to be very happy Will reduce affordability driven inequities Best way to reduce out of pocket expenditure for patients Most convenient for patients Will create jobs in the health sector Reduce fund outflow from domestic economies in sourcing overseas care CONNS Will push the health ministries towards severe constrains Will burden the already human resources Lead systems towards sever inequities Very soon dialysis will consume lion share of healthcare budgets Severely compromise the essential services Will create resource allocation inequities Hybrid solution of providing services to buy time Buy time for what and how? None of the sites can sustain dialysis services on their own If they are to sustain dialysis, there should be an additional grant to support medium term service provision Each site should develop an exit strategy by then to successfully control NCDs and reduce the demand to a manageable level Once the grant is over, the demand should be so low that the sites could sustain The sites need support for innovative NCD prevention and support to develop policy to implement this solution The response need to be mainstreamed that it really works PROS Best of both worlds Most sustainable solution Healthy populations CONNS Cannot afford to get it wrong!
