The cost of medical education.

As the result of another study which identified the indirect costs at a large teaching hospital in which Monash University has established a clinical school, it has been possible to estimate the cost per annum for each medical student. This is the sum of direct university costs ($4,617), Tertiary Education Assistance Scheme ($1,200) and indirect costs ($44)--in aggregate therefore $5,900 (rounded). Thus the cost of the six-year course for each student is approximately $35,500.

Hospital costs--the medical student component.

A study of indirect costs which could be attributed to undergraduate teaching in a large affiliated teaching hospital has shown that they are very small. Thus direct university costs in 1975 were $1,800,000 (7-6% of all expenditure at the hospital); indirect costs were $41,000 (approximately 0-2% of the hospital expenditure). It is concluded that the 45% difference in bed costs per day between teaching and non-teaching hospitals from a previous investigation is therefore not the result of the clinical school indirect demands on hospital expenditure.

Hospital staffing and hospital costs.

A comparative study of costs per bed per day in teaching hospitals affiliated with Monash University compared with large non-teaching metropolitan hospitals (1964 to 1974) shows they are much higher in teaching hospitals. There is no evidence that this is due to the additional costs arising from the clinical schools. Research in the teaching hospitals and the accompanying high professional standards and demands on services are major factors accounting for the difference. Over the decade studied, the resident staff have increased by 77% and other salaried staff by 24%. The index of expenditure for the three teaching hospitals in the decade has increased by 386%.
