Resum

Home and leisure accidents (HLAs) are one of the main causes of mortality attributable to causes other than aging and have a major impact on health systems. However, to date, studies measuring their socioeconomic impact are limited, unlike those associated with other causes such as accidents on the roads or in the workplace. We seek to analyze the long-term care (LTC) needs associated with HLAs in Spain using data from the recent EDAD 2020 survey. We conclude that the care needs derived from such accidents increase with age. The significant annual economic costs of HLAs in Spain, amounting to 2,158 million euros in 2020 or 0.19% of GDP, underscore the necessity to back preventive policies and to encourage insurance products that provide coverage for disabilities resulting from accidents at home and during leisure activities in general
