RESUMEN
We have used the step up allocation accounting method to determine the actual costs of complete blood count, urinalysis, chest radiograph and electrocardiogram. We found that the actual costs were quite different from the price set up by the hospital. The actual cost were much higher than the price for the complete blood count and urinalysis and much lower for the chest radiographs and especially for electrocardiogram. We propose that in performing economic analysis involving all these investigations, the actual cost should be used instead of the price.
