08 ICU admission, 2.18 hospital days, and 0.45 ICU day. Probability of hospitalization was 18% and 30% at 6 and 12 months, respectively, and was highest for those with FVC less then 50% predicted/diffusing lung capacity for carbon monoxide less then 30% predicted. Mean annual costs (95% CI) for ICU admission and inpatient care were $10,098 ($4,732-$16,662) and $13,975 ($8,482-$20,918) per patient. CONCLUSIONS IPF is associated with a substantial economic burden incurred by patients requiring hospital care. Future research in IPF should focus on improving cl
