The purpose of this research was to study the components, influencing factors, and their changing trend in a Chinese hospital, so as to reduce the economic burden of inpatients with type 2 diabetes. Data were collected from 7487 cases. There were 4368 inpatients with type 2 diabetes during 2002-2012 in a Chinese hospital. Multivariate linear regression analysis was performed to explore the influencing factors of hospitalization costs. The number of inpatients and their hospitalization costs had increasing trends in the study period. The medicine, test, and examination charges were the main sources of total costs. Longer hospital stays, older ages, and more times of hospitalization led to higher medical costs. Actions should be taken on all fronts to control the rapidly increasing trend of hospitalization costs and to reduce hospital stays and the number of times of hospitalization to reduce the economic burden of diabetic inpatients.
