This paper estimates the financial cost of skin cancer in England. National Health Service (NHS) costs were calculated by combining published data on health service use by patients with skin cancer with published data on the unit cost of services. Indirect costs arising from individuals' inability to function in their usual role as a result of skin cancer were estimated from incapacity benefit claims and numbers of registered deaths due to skin cancer. The total costs of skin cancer were around A 240 pound million. Costs to the NHS represented 42% of the total.
