    Author: Day PL.
    Journal: Pharm Pract Manag Q; 2000 Apr; 20(1):1-11. PubMed ID: 10947537.
    Abstract:
    This study was conducted in a large, integrated HMO to determine the prevalence and incidence of urinary incontinence, identify a demographic profile of patients having the UI subgroup condition of overactive bladder, and collect data to create an economic cost of illness description regarding current diagnosis and treatment practices. Using ICD-9 and CPT codes and prescription drug claims data as markers for the disease, subjects were selected for inclusion in the study. Resource use cost data was collected from this cohort over a three-year period and analyzed for total and mean monthly costs.
