Abstract
Cellulitis and abscess accounted for increasing percentages of inpatient (4.6-11.1%), outpatient (0.6-1.2%) and total (1.7-3.3%) expenses from 2001 through 2004. The per member per month expenses attributed to cellulitis and abscess increased from $0.74 in 2001 to $1.19 in 2004. The epidemic of community-acquired methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus infections in children has had a significant economic impact on the Driscoll Children's Health Plan.
