"According to a recent study of the hidden
costs of cigarettes, middle-aged men who
are heavy smokers will suffer an average of
$59,000 each in extra medical billsand lost
earnings during their lifetimes," says Clinton
nurse Nell Haggart, R.N.
"This estimate is probably low, however,

bution to lung cancer, heart disease and
emphysema. Smokers also face higherthan-usual
risks of a variety of other diseases,
including cancer of the mouth,
throat, bladder, and pancreas," she added.
For a man between the ages of 35 and 44
who smokes more than two packs a day, the
cigarette-related medical bills and lost work
will add up to an average of $58,987 during
his lifetime.

$20,152. The difference is largely due to
women's lower projected earnings.
The cost of smoking-related medical bills
is high, but is far outweighed by the wages
smokers lose if they die or are bedridden.
The costs go down as people get older. The

and for a woman it is $11,717.
The figures are averages for all smokers,
not just those who get sick.
These cost estimates do not imply that
every smoker will get lung cancer, coronary
heart disease or emphysema. This takes the
costs for those smokers who develop the
diseases and spreads them across all
smokers.
Smokers who actually get lung cancer, for
instance, may have costs far higher than the
averages, especially if they are young.
The medical expense of treating a man's
lung cancer averages $18,373. But a man
who gets the disease between ages 45 and
49 will lose an average of $286,047 in earnings,
so his total smoking-related costs are
figured to be $304,420.
