Abstract

Los h bitos de alimentaci n en las personas mayores constituyen un factor a tener en cuenta a la hora de analizar la calidad de vida. El objetivo del presente trabajo es valorar los costes sanitarios derivados de las visitas a servicios de salud y hospitalizaciones ocasionados por los h bitos de alimentaci n de las personas mayores. Para ello se utiliz la Encuesta Europea de Salud en Espa a de 2014, y a trav s de diferentes modelos se observa la asociaci n estad sticamente significativa entre el n mero de visitas a urgencias y el incumplimiento de unos criterios m nimos de alimentaci n saludable. El gasto p blico total anual estimado de dichas visitas asciende a 731M , de los que el 5,6% podr a ser debido a una alimentaci n no saludable.
