Excess Costs of Medical Care for Patients With Diabetes in a Managed Care Population Copyright c 1997 American Diabetes Association

RESULTS Excess expenditures in individuals with diabetes totaled $282.7 million, or $3,494 per person. Per person expenditures for members with diabetes were 2.4 times those for matched control
subjects. The largest proportion of total excess costs was for hospitalizations within the health maintenance organization (38.5%). Nearly 38% of the total excess was spent treating the long-term
complications of diabetes, predominantly coronary heart disease and end-stage renal disease.
