Description
The dataset contains information about the prevalence of chronic conditions among Original Medicare beneficiaries as well as about the spending and co-occurring conditions for those with each condition. The data are available for California and for the rest of the United States, overall and by demographic and geographic groups. Additionally, the data are available for each of 19 California geographic regions overall and by demographic and geographic groups. The data represent Medicare beneficiaries who are in the Original Medicare program. Medicare offers health care coverage for older adults and certain individuals with disabilities. The Original Medicare program is Parts A and B of Medicare, administered by the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. The analysis excludes enrollees of the Medicare Advantage program, administered by private insurers, because Medicare Advantage data are incomplete.
