Saving lives, money and resources: drug and CABG/PCI use after myocardial infarction in a Swedish record-linkage study
The European Journal of Health Economics, 06/08/09
Wilhelmsen L et al. - Costs for out-patient care accounted for 25% and drugs for 5% of total costs. If patients not treated with simvastatin or clopidogrel had received these drugs, an additional 154–306 lives might have been saved. Drug costs would be higher, but total costs lower. Thus, even expensive drugs may reduce overall costs.
