OBJECTIVES: The aim of our study is to determine the number of osteoporosis patients with pathological fractures by gender in outpatient care based on physiotherapy activities. METHODS: The data come from the financial data base of the National Health Insurance Fund Administration (in Hungarian: OEP) involving the year of 2013. The activity list was provided by the rulebook on the application of the activity code list in out-patient care. The osteoporosis with pathological fractures is listed in the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) with code of M80. Population distribution was taken into account on the basis of the data of the Central Statistical Office from January 1st 2013. RESULTS: Based on 151 physiotherapy activities, the annual patient numbers accounted for 39725 persons in the total population. The patient numbers accounted for 2544 persons for males and 37181 persons for females (10,000 per capita the patient numbers were 40 persons for the total population, 5 persons for males and 72 for females). CONCLUSIONS: The higher patient numbers for females can be clearly associated with the prevalence of the basic disease. The total value for the patient numbers by months is higher caused by the aftercare of the same patients that still lasts in the following month. The authors suggest structuring the health care system and distributing resources to follow the needs supported by our findings.
