Method: This retrospective study focused on Medicare FFS enrolees having experienced their first AMI in 2017–2018 and were free of prior depression diagnoses. Result: The findings of the current analysis indicate that early identification and treatment of depression might alleviate some negative effects on healthcare expenses and utilisation by decreasing the probability of recurrence and adverse outcomes. Timely identification of depression may contribute to stabilising long-term expenses, however a delayed diagnosis might hinder the attainment of favourable outcomes.
