Burn injuries are the costliest injuries to treat. They come with the longest hospital stays and management costs of any ER admission, and treatment requires multiple surgeries, expensive equipment, and high-demand specialists. Altogether, the lifetime cost of a severe burn ranged from $100,000 to nearly $1 million.

One study from the Consumer Product Safety Commission found that the lifetime costs for even moderate burns was between $55,000 and $68,000—just for medical costs. An analysis (a study of other studies) found that 80.4 percent of the cost of a burn injury was non-medical. Every year, the average burn patient can expect to pay $80,000 in non-medical or indirect costs due to their injuries.

These indirect costs included:

  • Loss of quality of life and well-being
  • Loss of work time, earning ability
  • Loss of income from family caretakers
  • Transportation to/from surgery
  • Home care costs

A third study found that the people who were most likely to suffer severe burns were the least able to afford it. Most burn victims come from low-income households, and the decreased access to quality medical care meant a higher likelihood of complications. Burn injury complications tended to magnify the lifetime cost of the injury and contributed to a lower quality of life.

Complications include:

  • Disfigurement
  • Psychological trauma
  • Degradation of the skin
  • Infections and organ failure
  • Skin graft failure
