Abstract:
This study used data from the 1991-1993 MarketScan files, a large database of private sector inpatient, outpatient, and prescription drug medical claims, to identify a sample of 665 patients with schizophrenia. Descriptive and multivariate analyses were conducted on the subsamples with hospitalizations (N = 185) and without hospitalizations (N = 480) in the 1-year period following the initial diagnosis for schizophrenia observed in the 1991-1993 time period. After controlling for patient demographic characteristics, medical co-morbidities, and other factors, the cost of hospitalization itself was found to be $15,805.
