This cost is borne by the residents or their families, the general councils and the health insurance.

A third of the total related to care

The costs related to the care provided represent a third of the total, ie 11.844 euros, of which 2007 are city care financed by health insurance. Costs related to hotels (11.616 euros) also represent a third of the total, while support in acts of daily life represents a quarter (8500 euros) and expenses related to social ties 8% (2745 euros) .

In order to confirm these results, a second survey on 2013 costs should be conducted between June and October next from a larger sample. A national study will then be carried out with data from 2015 to determine an average daily cost by type of resident.
