abstract: 'Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is a chronic disease requiring lifelong
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
insulin treatment. T1DM patients require care given not only by
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
themselves but also by their family members, particularly in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
childhood-onset cases. This study aims to identify the relationship
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
between health expenditure, HbA1c and other health outcomes and the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
socio-economic status of patients and their families, with a focus on
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
family employment status, i.e., whether the caregiver is employed or is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
a homemaker. To clarify the relationship between the level of health,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
such as expenditure on health care and HbA1c, and the socioeconomic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
status of patients and their families, we focus on whether they are
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``potential full-time caregivers{''''}. Using this analysis, we estimated
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the hypothetical health care expenditure and HbA1c and showed that male
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
patients have higher expenditure and lower HbA1c when their caregiver is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
a potential full-time caregiver, whereas younger female patients have
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
higher health care expenditure and lower HbA1c when their caregiver is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employed. This finding is not meant to serve as criticism of health care
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
policy in this area; rather, the aim is to contribute to economic policy
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in Japan for T1DM patients 20 years and older.'
