Abstract:
INTRODUCTION:Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the classic progressive fibrosing interstitial lung disease (ILD), but some patients with ILDs other than IPF also develop a progressive fibrosing phenotype (PF-ILD). Information on use and cost of healthcare resources in patients with PF-ILD is limited. METHODS:We used USA-based medical insurance claims (2014-2016) to assess use and cost of healthcare resources in PF-ILD. Patients with at least two ILD claims and at least one pulmonologist visit were considered to have ILD. Pulmonologist visit frequency was used as a proxy to identify PF-ILD (at least four visits in 2016, or at least three more visits in 2016 vs. 2014). RESULTS:Of 2517 patients with non-IPF ILD, 15% (n = 373) had PF-ILD. Mean annual medical costs associated with ILD claims were $35,364 in patients with non-IPF PF-ILD versus $20,211 in the non-IPF ILD population. In 2016, patients with non-IPF PF-ILD made more hospital ILD claims than patients with non-IPF ILD (10.5 vs. 4.7). CONCLUSIONS:These findings suggest higher disease severity and overall healthcare use for patients with a non-IPF ILD manifesting a progressive fibrosing phenotype (non-IPF PF-ILD). :Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a group of similar lung conditions with lung fibrosis, scarring, or inflammation of the lung tissue. Some patients with ILD also have worsening lung fibrosis, referred to as “progressive fibrosis” (PF-ILD). The most common type of PF-ILD is idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), which has no known cause. Although much is known about IPF, there is limited information available on how often patients with ILDs other than IPF (non-IPF ILD) use healthcare, or the costs associated with the disease. This study used US medical insurance claims to gain further insights. The study examined data from over 2500 patients with non-IPF ILD, of which 15% had PF-ILD. Patients defined as having PF-ILD had higher yearly medical costs and used healthcare services more often than other patients with ILD. This study highlights the economic burden of non-IPF ILD with progressive fibrosis (non-IPF PF-ILD).
