Hypertension-Associated Expenditures Among Privately Insured US Adults in 2021.
BACKGROUND
There are no recent estimates for hypertension-associated medical expenditures. This study aims to estimate hypertension-associated incremental medical expenditures among privately insured US adults.
METHODS
We conducted a retrospective cohort study using IQVIA's Ambulatory Electronic Medical Records-US data set linked with PharMetrics Plus claims data. Among privately insured adults aged 18 to 64 years, hypertension was identified as having ≥1 diagnosis code or ≥2 blood pressure measurements of ≥140/90 mm Hg, or ≥1 antihypertensive medication in 2021. Annual total expenditures (in 2021 $US) were estimated using a generalized linear model with gamma distribution and log-link function adjusting for demographic characteristics and cooccurring conditions. Out-of-pocket expenditures were estimated using a 2-part model that included logistic and generalized linear model regression. Overlap propensity score weights from logistic regression were used to obtain a balanced sample on hypertension status.
RESULTS
Among the 393 018 adults, 156 556 (40%) were identified with hypertension. Compared with individuals without hypertension, those with hypertension had $2926 (95% CI, $2681-$3170) higher total expenditures and $328 (95% CI, $300-$355) higher out-of-pocket expenditures. Adults with hypertension had higher total inpatient ($3272 [95% CI, $1458-$5086]) and outpatient ($2189 [95% CI, $2009-$2369]) expenditures when compared with those without hypertension. Hypertension-associated incremental total expenditures were higher for women ($3242 [95% CI, $2915-$3569]) than for men ($2521 [95% CI, $2139-$2904]).
CONCLUSIONS
Among privately insured US adults, hypertension was associated with higher medical expenditures, including higher inpatient and out-of-pocket expenditures. These findings may help assess the economic value of interventions effective in preventing hypertension.
