Executive Summary
In Hungary, a health centre focusing on preventive medicine, including screening, has been set up in the suburbs of Budapest as a model of how to maximise the use of health funds and save treatment costs. The findings of the project at the Misszio Egeszsegkozpont Kht (Mission Health Centre) show that those patients who attend outpatient clinics following screening cost 10% less to treat than those who fail to attend screening and ultimately need hospital treatment, according to the Budapest Business Journal.
