We use a regression framework and nationally representative data to compute aggregate overweight- obesity-attributable medical spending for the United States select payers. Combined, such expenditures account 9.1 percent of total annual U.S. in 1998 may be as high $78.5 billion ($92.6 2002 dollars). Medicare Medicaid finance approximately half these costs.
Objective. To examine the trend of obesity-associated diseases in youths and related economic costs. Methods. Using a multiyear data file National Hospital Discharge Survey, 1979–1999, we analyzed changes costs (6–17 years age) over time. Diabetes, obesity, sleep apnea, gallbladder disease were examined to explore burden. Other for which obesity was listed as secondary diagnosis also analyzed. Obesity-associated hospital estimated from discharges with principal or diagnosis. Results. From...
To provide state-level estimates of total, Medicare, and Medicaid obesity-attributable medical expenditures.We developed an econometric model that predicts expenditures. We used this state-representative data to quantify expenditures.Annual U.S. expenditures are estimated at $75 billion in 2003 dollars, approximately one-half these financed by Medicare Medicaid. State-level range from $87 million (Wyoming) $7.7 (California). Obesity-attributable $15 $1.7 (California), $23 $3.5 (New...
BACKGROUND: The benefits of physical activity in reducing morbidity and mortality are well-established, but the effect inactivity on direct medical costs is less clear.OBJECTIVE: To describe expenditures associated with inactivity.DESIGN: Cross-sectional stratified analysis 1987 National Medical Expenditures Survey that included US civilian men nonpregnant women aged 15 older who were not institutions 1987. Main outcome measure was costs.RESULTS: For those without limitations, average annual...
To quantify annual costs attributable to obesity, including both increased medical expenditures and absenteeism, separately for overweight three categories of obesity (i.e., grades I, II, III) among men women with full-time employment.Standard econometric methods were used estimate obesity-attributable absenteeism.The civilian noninstitutionalized population the United States.Two nationally representative publicly available datasets (with response rates at least 60%) restricted participants...
Physical inactivity is increasingly being recognised as a major problem in global health. The WHO estimates that 3.3 million people die around the world each year due to physical inactivity, making it fourth leading underlying cause of mortality.1 activity has beneficial effects on 23 diseases or health conditions.2 However, most countries fewer than half adults are active enough reap these benefits.3 ,4 Given increases risk for many costly medical conditions such type 2 diabetes, stroke,...
We estimated the informal caregiving hours and costs associated with stroke.
Physical inactivity is an established independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), the leading cause of death and disability among U.S. adults. Information on economic impact CVD associated with lacking, however, although it needed to attract more resources preventing promoting physical activity.The objective this study was estimate direct medical expenditures inactivity.A population-based analysis expenditure performed by linking 1996 Medical Expenditure Panel Survey 1995...
The factors which influence consumer usage of food labels are investigated by a qualitative response model using the 1987–1988 Nationwide Food Consumption Survey data. Econometric results show that economic, sociodemographic, and health awareness variables determinants label usage. implications these findings include formulating government labeling regulations educational programs evaluating benefits labels.
From a public health perspective, cost-benefit analysis of using bike/pedestrian trails in Lincoln, Nebraska, to reduce care costs associated with inactivity was conducted. Data obtained from the city's 1998 Recreational Trails Census Report and literature. Per capita annual cost 209.28 U.S. dollars (59.28 construction maintenance, 150 equipment travel). direct medical benefit 564.41 dollars. The ratio 2.94, which means that every 1 dollar investment for physical activity led 2.94 benefit....
IntroductionTrends of prevalence, treatment, and control hypertension have been documented in the U.S., but changes medical expenditures associated with over time not evaluated. This study analyzed these during 2000–2013 among U.S. adults.MethodsData from Medical Expenditure Panel Survey were 2016. The population was non-institutionalized men non-pregnant women aged ≥18 years. Hypertension defined as ever diagnosed or currently taking antihypertensive medications. included all payments to...
Background Hypertension is a major risk factor for heart disease and stroke. Health insurance coverage affects hypertension treatment control, but limited information available US adults with who are classified as underinsured. Methods Results Using Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System 2013 data, we identified self‐reported hypertension. On the basis of health status care–related financial burdens, participants were categorized uninsured, underinsured, or adequately insured. Proxies...
The purpose of this study is to investigate comorbidity status and its impact on total medical expenditures in non-institutionalized hypertensive adults the U.S.
Telestroke is a telemedicine intervention that facilitates communication between stroke centers and lower-resourced facilities to optimize acute management. Using administrative claims data, we assessed trends in telestroke use among fee-for-service Medicare beneficiaries with ischemic the association providing services intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (IV tPA) mechanical thrombectomy use, mortality, medical expenditures, by urban versus rural county of residence period 2008-15.
