Calvin Coolidge Keepin' Healthy Most of us would probably have a difficult time trying to associate venereal disease with financial aid to school districts. But, believe it or not. there is a connection. Experts estimate that 2.2 school days are missed for each female case of gonorrhea. In calendar year 1977, 21,213 cases of gonorrhea in females oc­ curred in downstate Illinois. This equals 46,668 missed school days, which cost local school districts $233,340 in lost state aid Loss of state aid to school districts is not the only way in which venereal disease wastes dollars. For example, since gonorrhea usually causes no symptoms in females in its early stages, many women do not receive early treatment. As a consequence, ~ seventeen percent of the female gonorrhea cases develop pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) This means that, in 1977 , 3.606 cases of PID occurred in downstate Illinois - 2,740 of whom required hospitalization The average per day cost of hospitalization for each of these patients was $208.50, not in­ cluding medical attention or surgery The average time a PID patient spends in the hospital is 6 86 days, which means the cost per patient last SECTION 2 - PAGE 1 - PLAINDEALER **** year was $1,430 Multiply that : by the 2,740 hospitalized and it • comes to a total cost of nearly * four million dollars. ; The Illinois Department of I Public Health, through its venereal disease control program is attempting to reduce the cost of venereal disease, both in terms of human suffering and dollars. Early treatment of gonorrhea in females is the most effective way to reduce these costs (The emphasis is on females, due to the fact that most women have no early symptoms of the disease and, therefore, many do not seek treatment In men, gonorrhea usually produces symptoms within a few days after infection, causing most males to receive treatment.) During ;977, through the state health department's venereal disease control ef­ forts, 8,485 female gonorrhea victims were identified and given early treatment. The cost of this early treatment was eighty-two cents per patient, or a total of $6,962 If these women had not received early treat­ ment, the predictable seven teen percent of them had developed PID. it would have cost $2,062,704 This means the early treatment resulted in a net savings of $2,055,742. In addition, thousands of females, known to have contact with male gonorrhea victims, were given preventive treatment and so did not develop the disease In the case of syphilis, it was very much the same procedure Experience shows that, when syphilis is not treated, one in FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, If71 twenty-five patients becomes crippled or incapacitated; one in 200 becomes blind; one in thirteen develops syphilitic heart disease; and one in fofty* four develops neurosyphilis. During 1977, through the efforts of the venereal disease control program. 1,123 syphilis patients received treatment,; and 273 persons exposed to the infection were given preventive treatment Had these 1,300 cases gone untreated, 163 of these patients would have required sophisticated and extended care, at an estimated; cost of $2,198,718 >not including lost wages and tax revenues). ; The total 1977 budget for the venereal disease control program, including state and federal funding, was slightly over $600,000 The program resulted in a cost savings of well over six million dollars!
