High-cost Users of Pharmaceuticals: Who are They?
In Manitoba, over 40% of prescription dollars get consumed by only 5% of the Manitobans taking prescription drugs. This study looks at these "high-cost" users and compares them to other Manitobans taking prescriptions. What drug categories account for higher prescription costs? What explains the higher drug costs? Are there signs or predictors that someone will become a high-cost user?
