Healthcare Resource Utilization and Costs of Rivaroxaban Versus Warfarin Among Non-valvular Atrial Fibrillation (NVAF) Patients with Diabetes in a US Population.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

The healthcare resource utilization (HRU) and costs of oral anticoagulant-naïve patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) and diabetes initiated on rivaroxaban or warfarin in the United States (US) has not been previously evaluated.

Methods

This retrospective study used data from the Optum's de-identified Clinformatics^® Data Mart Database (1 January, 2012 to 30 September, 2021) to evaluate the HRU and costs of adult patients with NVAF and diabetes newly initiated on rivaroxaban or warfarin (on or after January 2013). Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) was used to adjust for confounding between cohorts. HRU and costs (USD 2021) were assessed per patient-year (PPY) post-treatment initiation. Weighted cohorts were compared usin
