Abstract: Objective To evaluate the medical expenses of hypertension and its constitution, and to calculate the economic burden of hypertension in rural and urban of Shandong province. Methods Three urban districts and four rural counties were selected by random cluster sampling method. The data of 5 188 managed hypertension patients were collected through questionnaire survey. Results The average medical expenses of urban and rural hypertension patients were 900.4 and 655.2 RMB respectively. And the proportions of households with catastrophic health expenditure were 8.1% and 7.0% respectively in urban and rural areas. Urban patients, poor patients and patients with longer illness years had higher medical expenditure. The total medical expense of hypertension reached 16.49 billion RMB as estimated in Shandong province. Conclusion More attention should be paid to reducing the economic burden of hypertension in urban areas, under the condition of continuing to reduce the economic burden of hypertension in rural areas.

Key words: Medical expenses, Hypertension, Economic burden
