Cost of Injury Reports

Motor Vehicle Traffic Deaths and Estimated Lifetime Medical Costs, by Sex, 2010

Generate your own Cost of Injury Reports!

This application produces reports showing estimated costs associated with

• fatal injuries or
• nonfatal injuries

with injuries classified either by

• intent and mechanism of injury or
• body region and nature of injury.

Cost estimates can be calculated using system-provided data (built into the application) or using a combination of system-provided data and data that you enter.

You can specify the following characteristics for cost estimates

• national, regional, or state-level geographic coverage for fatal injuries (estimates are always at the national level for nonfatal injuries)
• sex and age of injured persons
• type of cost (lifetime medical and/or lifetime work loss and/or both combined) and cost measure (total for all persons and/or average per person)
• indexing to U.S., regional, or state prices (depending on geographic coverage specified)
• indexing to prices for different calendar years (when using your own data).
