Methods: Patients wereincluded in the study if they had at least one diagnosis claim for Parkinson’s disease(International Classification of Diseases, 9thRevision, Clinical Modification code 332.xx) during the identification period (01JUL2008-31DEC2010). The first Parkinson’s disease diagnosis claim date was designated as the index date. Patients were requiredto be age ?65 and have continuous health plan enrollment with medical benefitsfor 6 months pre- and post-index date. Residents in a LTC facility were defined asstudy patients using two quarterly assessments recorded in the MDS during the6-month baseline period. Demographic and clinical characteristics and follow-uphealth care costs and utilizations were described. Results: After 1:1 matching,1,620 patients were included in each group (disease and control patients), and thebaseline characteristics were well-balanced. Patients with Parkinson’s diseasewere more likely to have inpatient stays (14.26% vs. 9.51%, p<0.0001), outpatientvisits (47.72% vs. 41.11%, p=0.0002), skilled nursing facility (SNF) visits (20.37% vs.4.51%, p<0.0001), hospice visits (8.64% vs. 1.36%, p<0.0001), and part D pharmacyvisit (62.65% vs. 53.33%, p<0.0001). Compared to control patients, higher all-causehealth care costs were also observed for Parkinson’s disease patients, includinginpatient costs ($2,451 vs. $1,301, p<0.0001), SNF costs ($2,503 vs. $778, p<0.0001),hospice costs ($1,164 vs. $245, p<0.0001), total outpatient costs ($4,477 vs. $1,304,p<0.0001), pharmacy costs ($695 vs. $1,399, p<0.0001) and total costs ($9,775 vs.$5,314, p<0.0001). Conclusions: During a period of 12 months, patients diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease had higher health care utilization and costs thanmatched control patients.Conference Object Examination of the Economic Burden of Dyslipidemia in the Veterans Health Administration Population(2016) Keshishian, A; Tan, H; Xie, L; Başer, Onur...Conference Object Assessing Health Care Resource Utilization and Costs Among Us Veterans Diagnosed With Asthma(2016) Ogbomo, A; Tan, H; Kariburyo, F; Xie, L; Başer, Onur...Conference Object Evaluating the Economic Burden and Health Care Utilization of Anemia in the Us Medicare Population(2016) Tan, H; Xie, L; Başer, Onur; Yuce, H; Wang Y....Conference Object Examine the Burden of Illness of Us Medicare Patients Diagnosed With Cataract(2016) Tan, H; Xie, L; Wang, Y; Yuce H; Başer, Onur...Conference Object Evaluation of the Burden of Opioid Abuse Among Us Veteran Patients(2015) Başer, Onur; Ogbomo, A; Tan, H; Du, J; Xie L....Conference Object Trends in Prevalence and Incidence Rates of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in the Medicare Population(2015) Xie, L; Wang, Y; Tan, H; Ogbomo, A; Başer, Onur; Yuce H....
