Reimbursement, Utilization, and 1-Year Survival Post-Allogeneic Transplantation for Medicare Beneficiaries With Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Abstract

The economics of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT) for older patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) affects clinical practice and public policy. To assess reimbursement, utilization, and overall survival (OS) up to 1 year post-alloHCT for Medicare beneficiaries aged 65 years or older with AML, a unique merged dataset of Medicare claims and national alloHCT registry data was analyzed.
