In the article, the authors present an administrative data analysis of osteoporosis assessment and treatment following a fracture in older adults. Other topics include the efforts to bridge the gap between an event of fracture and osteopororis evaluation, the use of bisphosphonates as first-line therapy for osteoporosis, and other treatments like parathyroid hormones, calcitonin, and bisphosphonate.
