“…However, only 19 studies included all of the above-mentioned costs in their analyses. A mix of micro-costing and gross-costing approaches were used with cost data estimated from fee schedules [22-24, 26, 27, 34, 40, 41, 45, 46], hospitals [22-25, 28, 44, 47, 48], Medicare reimbursement data [30-32, 38, 39, 42, 45], secondary databases (e.g., Agency for Healthcare Research and QualityHealthcare Cost and Utilization Project) [29,30,32,39,43], and literature [21,34,37,46,55]. Similarly, drug costs were obtained from various sources like hospitals [22,23,25,29,37,48], formularies or fee schedules [24,26,34,40,41,43,46], Medicare reimbursement data [30, 31, 33, 37-39, 42, 45], or average wholesale prices [28,39,44,47].…”
