Direct Healthcare Cost of Fractures in Patients With Type 1 Diabetes: A Population-Based Cohort Study in Denmark
While hip fractures were the most costly site, there were no differences in the 1-year post-fracture direct healthcare costs. However, the costs were significantly higher at all other fracture sites among patients with T1D. Increased uptake of fracture prevention strategies among T1D may help reduce fracture risk and subsequently costs.
