Costs of care. Costs of care for CARE Track patients compared to control patients were calculated for the last 3 months of life. Costs here represent UVA charges only on the inpatient and outpatient sides. Overall costs of care, and costs for each month prior to death were less for CARE Track patients than for controls, with the most significant differences noted for inpatient charges in the last months of life.
