Summary
In industrialised countries, it is very likely that there will be a sharp rise in the number of individuals in old age in the upcoming decades. Common characteristics of these individuals include multi-morbidity or frequent doctor visits which are obviously linked to increased healthcare costs.1 Therefore, identifying the determinants associated with increased healthcare costs among individuals in old age is crucial. Knowledge regarding these factors can help to manage healthcare services.
