In this video, we explain the fundamental difference between inpatient and outpatient care, primarily based on whether a hospital stay is required:

• Inpatient care requires an overnight hospital stay, often for more complex or severe conditions.

• Outpatient care involves same-day procedures, allowing patients to go home after treatment.

• Inpatient care typically incurs higher costs than outpatient care due to facility and resource expenses.

• Understanding the difference between inpatient and outpatient care is crucial for making informed decisions about treatment options and their associated costs.
