Variation in Utilization and Spending for the Management of Actinic Keratosis

Importance: In 2004, the US health care spending for actinic keratosis (AK) management was $1.2 billion so any change in the money spent per person could equate to large cost differences due to the high prevalence.
Objective: To assess AK-specific healthcare utilization and costs and the impact of minimizing extremes of utilization and spending.
Methods: Retrospective cohort study, using data from a large private insurer for the mid-Atlantic region for the period of January 2010 to December 2012.
