Acad Pediatr
July 2020
Division of General Pediatrics, Department of Medicine, Complex Care Service, Boston Children's Hospital, Harvard Medical School (JG Berry), Boston, Mass.
Objective: To examine how characteristics vary between children with any mental health (MH) diagnosis who have typical spending and the highest spending; to identify independent predictors of highest spending; and to examine drivers of spending groups.
Methods: This retrospective analysis utilized 2016 Medicaid claims from 11 states and included 775,945 children ages 3 to 17 years with any MH diagnosis and at least 11 months of continuous coverage. We compared demographic characteristics and Medicaid expenditures based on total health care spending: the top 1% (highest-spending) and remaining 99% (typical-spending).
