Abstract

Viral hepatitis is a serious public health problem due to the significant healthcare consequences of hepatitis-C (HCV) and hepatitis-B (HBV) in the United States. Since 2009, Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved a new class of drugs for HCV and two new molecules for HBV. However, limited healthcare burden evidence exists for viral-hepatitis after the introduction of new drugs. Therefore, this study evaluated the marginal healthcare expenditures for viral-hepatitis using the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS).
