Long-Term Healthcare Resource Utilization and Costs among Patients with Myasthenia Gravis: A Swedish Nationwide Population-Based Study

In this population-based study, MG patients required significantly more healthcare resources in year 1 post-diagnosis than PE MG primarily due to more pharmacological treatments, thymectomies, and associated hospitalizations. These findings highlight the need to better understand potential factors including disease characteristics associated with increased health resource use and costs and need for more efficacious treatments early in the disease course.
