Receptive aphasia can be difficult to diagnose as the symptoms can be mistaken as a confused state due to stroke or blunt force trauma. In order for receptive aphasia to be diagnosed a complete language examination, especially of the auditory system, must be done.
Cost of Stroke â Stroke severity includes a broad range; about half ofsurvivors unable to walk unaided. â Acute inpatient costs average $38,000 but are only afraction of total economic burden (including rehab,long-term care).â Average lifetime cost of stroke in the U.S. estimatedto be $60,000.Race and Stroke Risk â Stroke risk increased 1.5-2.5 times. â Higher prevalence of hypertension.

Results âMedian length of stay was 6 days (range, 1 to 63 days), and mortality was 3%. Median hospital cost per discharge was $4408 (range, $1199 to $59 799). Fifty percent of costs were for room charges, 19% for stroke evaluation, 21% for medical management, and 7% for acute rehabilitation therapies.Sixteen percent were admitted to an intensive care unit.Length of stay accounted for 43% of the variance in total cost.he mean LOS for patients admitted with acute ischemic stroke in other US studies ranged from 9.2 to 11.6 days, 6 7 8 considerably longer than the 8 days in our study. Similarly, average total cost in most studies ranged from $7220 to $13 149, again higher than in our study.
