- Abstract
Aims: To estimate healthcare resource utilization (HCRU) and healthcare costs by body mass index (BMI) in a UK cohort and to explore how this varied by defined BMI strata., Materials and Methods: This retrospective open cohort study used Discover, a linked primary and secondary electronic health records database covering 2.7 million individuals. Adults were stratified by BMI as: overweight (25-<30 kg/m
2 ); obesity class I (30-<35 kg/m2 ); obesity class II (35-<40 kg/m2 ); or obesity class III (≥40 kg/m2 ). Cost data, comprising primary care, secondary care (inpatient admissions, outpatient appointments and emergency room visits) and prescriptions, were reported for 2015-2019., Results: Overall, 1 008 101 individuals were overweight, 278 782 had obesity class I; 80 621 had obesity class II, and 42 642 had obesity class III. Healthcare costs and HCRU events per person per year increased over time (2015: £851-£1321 and 10.6-13.4 events; 2019: £1143-£1871 and 11.4-14.9 events), and were higher for each successive BMI group. Groups with chronic kidney disease or cardiovascular disease incurred particularly high costs. In 270 493 individuals with obesity in 2019, more than 72% of total healthcare costs were incurred by the highest cost quintile, which had a higher mean age and more obesity-related complications (ORCs) than lower cost quintiles., Conclusions: The economic impact of obesity could be alleviated by weight management support based on unmet need, to limit the effects of BMI progression and ORC development., (Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism© 2024 The Author(s).

- Abstract
Aim: To assess the prevalence of individual obesity-related complications (ORCs) and multimorbidity (≥ 1, ≥ 2 and ≥ 3 ORCs), and multimorbidity-associated healthcare costs, over 10 years., Methods: This retrospective open cohort study used Discover, a UK database of linked primary and secondary electronic health records. Adults were stratified by body mass index (BMI; overweight: 25-< 30 kg/m
2 ; obesity class I: 30-< 35 kg/m2 ; obesity class II: 35-< 40 kg/m2 ; obesity class III: ≥ 40 kg/m2 ). Outcomes by year since baseline were assessed for serial cross sections across the study period (1 January 2004 to 31 December 2019; the index date was the date of first eligible BMI measurement)., Results: Across 1 410 146 individuals (overweight: 1 008 101; obesity class I: 278 782; obesity class II: 80 621; obesity class III: 42 642), ORC prevalence was higher in successive BMI groups, and increases over time were generally greater for obesity relative to overweight. In those with ORC multimorbidity, both higher BMI and the presence of more ORCs were associated with higher annual per-person healthcare costs. Costs increased over time in those individuals with obesity and one or more ORC, as well as in those with obesity and two or more ORCs., Conclusions: Higher BMI was associated with higher baseline ORC prevalence and a greater increase in ORC prevalence over time, and with higher healthcare costs in those with multimorbidity. To reduce the burden of overweight and obesity on patients and healthcare systems, the presence, number and type of ORCs should be considered in developing effective, targeted prevention and management care pathways., (Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism© 2024 The Author(s).

- Abstract
Aims: We investigated the impact of intentional weight loss on health care resource utilization (HCRU) and costs among people with obesity., Materials and Methods: This retrospective, observational cohort study used data from the Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD) GOLD database. Adults >18 years at index date [first recorded body mass index (BMI) of 30-50 kg/m
2 between 2006 and 2015 with a further BMI record 4 years later] were assigned to an intentional weight loss cohort (-25% to -10% BMI change) or a stable weight cohort (-3% to +3%), based on their BMI change during a 4-year baseline period from index date. Evidence of intention to lose weight during the baseline period was required. Linked Hospital Episode Statistics datasets captured HCRU and costs over an 8-year follow-up period. Mixed effects models adjusted for demographics, total costs during baseline and baseline comorbidities were used., Results: Baseline characteristics were similar between cohorts with weight loss (n = 8676) and stable weight (n = 44 519). Over follow-up, the weight loss cohort experienced a significantly lower mean annual increase in total costs [2.1% (95% confidence interval: 1.3-2.8)] than the stable weight cohort [4.3% (95% confidence interval: 4.0-4.6); p < .0001]. Weight loss was associated with a lower mean annual increase in multiple HCRU and cost components compared with maintaining a stable high weight., Conclusions: Our findings suggest that intentional weight loss of 10-25% is associated with lower HCRU and costs in the long term among individuals living with obesity, relative to stable weight., (© 2023 The Authors.

- Abstract
Background: Obesity-related complications (ORCs) are associated with high costs for healthcare systems. We assessed the relationship between comorbidity burden, represented by both number and type of 14 specific ORCs, and total healthcare costs over time in people with obesity in the USA., Methods: Adults (≥ 18 years old) identified from linked electronic medical records and administrative claims databases, with a body mass index measurement of 30-< 70 kg/m
2 between 1 January 2007 and 31 March 2012 (earliest measurement: index date), and with continuous enrolment for ≥ 1 year pre index (baseline year) and ≥ 8 years post index, were included. Individuals were grouped by type and number of ORCs during the pre-index baseline year. The primary outcome was annual total adjusted direct per-person healthcare costs., Results: Of 28,583 included individuals, 12,686 had no ORCs, 7242 had one ORC, 4180 had two ORCs and 4475 had three or more ORCs in the baseline year. Annual adjusted direct healthcare costs increased with the number of ORCs and over the 8-year follow-up. Outpatient costs were the greatest contributor to baseline annual direct costs, irrespective of the number of ORCs. For specific ORCs, costs generally increased gradually over the follow-up; the largest percentage increases from year 1 to year 8 were observed for chronic kidney disease (+ 78.8%) and type 2 diabetes (+ 47.8%)., Conclusions: In a US real-world setting, the number of ORCs appears to be a cost driver in people with obesity, from the time of initial obesity classification and for at least the following 8 years., (© 2023.

- Abstract
Aims: Obesity-related complications (ORCs) impose a substantial health burden on affected individuals, and economic costs to health care systems. We examined ORCs and the progression of direct health care costs over 8 years, stratified by obesity class., Materials and Methods: Adults with obesity were identified in linked US medical records and administrative claims databases. The index date was the first body mass index measurement of 30 to <70 kg/m
2 between 1 January 2007 and 31 March 2012; a ≥8-year continuous enrolment post-index was required for inclusion. Diagnosis codes for five specific ORCs and total health care costs were recorded in each year of follow-up. Costs adjusted for clinical and demographic factors were also estimated., Results: Of 28 583 eligible individuals, 17 892 had class I obesity, 6550 had class II obesity and 4141 had class III obesity. From baseline to year 8, the presence of type 2 diabetes and knee osteoarthritis doubled in all obesity classes, with even larger increases for chronic kidney disease and heart failure. Observed and adjusted total health care costs generally increased from the baseline year to year 8. The difference in costs between obesity classes increased over time: at year 1, individuals with class III obesity had 26.8% higher costs than those in class I, but at year 8, this difference was 40.7%. Outpatient costs constituted half of the total observed costs across obesity classes., Conclusions: ORC rates and health care costs increase over time, and are greater in higher obesity classes. This could be mitigated by approaches that limit obesity progression., (© 2022 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.)- Published

- Abstract
Introduction: The aim of the study was to compare eligible individuals who were or were not treated with bariatric surgery and describe disease burden, treatment, and healthcare costs over 3 years in individuals who were not., Methods: Adults with obesity class II and comorbidities, or obesity class III, were identified in IQVIA Ambulatory EMR - US and PharMetrics® Plus administrative claims databases (January 1, 2007-December 31, 2017). Outcomes included demographics, BMI, comorbidities, and per patient per year (PPPY) healthcare costs., Results: Of 127,536 eligible individuals, 3,962 (3.1%) underwent surgery. The surgery group was younger, a greater proportion were women, and mean BMI and rates of some comorbidities (obstructive sleep apnea, gastroesophageal reflux disease, and depression) were higher than in the nonsurgery group. Mean healthcare costs PPPY in the baseline year were USD 13,981 in the surgery group and USD 12,024 in the nonsurgery group. In the nonsurgery group, incident comorbidities increased during follow-up. Mean total costs increased by 20.5% from baseline to year 3, mostly driven by an increase in pharmacy costs; however, fewer than 2% of these individuals initiated antiobesity medications., Conclusions: Individuals who did not undergo bariatric surgery showed a progressive worsening of health and increasing healthcare costs, indicating a large unmet need for access to clinically indicated obesity treatment., (© 2023 The Author(s).
