National Trends in Direct Healthcare Expenditures Among Us Adults With Migraine: 2004-2013

Migraine is a common neurological disorder with significant economic burden in the United States. However, changes in the economic burden of migraine in the past decade have not been examined given therapeutic advances at the national level. Therefore, we estimated cross-sectional trends in the incremental total and types of direct healthcare expenditures among individuals with migraine using a nationally representative data, the Medical Expenditures Panel Survey. The analytic sample comprised of a weighted population of 228,010,000 adults aged 18 years and older from 2004 to 2013.
