[The estimated economic impact of cardiovascular and diabetes mellitus complications 2019-2028]
Abstract
Background: In Mexico, diabetes mellitus (DM) and diseases cardiovascular, register an upward trend.
Objective: To estimate the number of complications due to cardiovascular events (CVD) and complications derived from DM (CDM) accumulated in beneficiaries of the Mexican Institute of Social Security (IMSS) from 2019 to 2028, as well as the expense for medical and economic benefits in a scenario baseline and one of change in metabolic profile due to lack of medical follow-up during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Material and methods: The number of CVD and CDM was estimated from 2019, with a 10-year risk projection using the ESC CVD Risk Calculator and United Kingdom Prospective Diabetes Study, considering risk factors registered in the institutional databases.
Results: From 2019 to 2028, cumulative CVD cases were estimated at 2 million and those of CDM in 960 thousand, with an impact on medical spending of 439,523 million pesos and on the economic benefits of 174,085 millions. When considering the COVID-19 pandemic, CVD events and CDM increased by 589 thousand, with an increase in spending of 93,787 million pesos for medical care and 41,159 million for economic benefits.
Conclusions: Without a comprehensive intervention in the management of CVD and CDM, the cost by both diseases will continue to increase, with financial pressures getting older.
Introducción: en México la diabetes mellitus (DM) y las enfermedades cardiovasculares, registran una tendencia ascendente.
Objetivo: estimar el número de complicaciones por eventos cardiovasculares (ECV) y complicaciones derivadas de la DM (CDM) acumuladas en derechohabientes del Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social (IMSS) de 2019 a 2028, así como el gasto por prestaciones médicas y económicas en un escenario de referencia y uno de cambio en el perfil metabólico debido a la falta de seguimiento médico durante la pandemia por COVID-19.
Material y métodos: se estimó el número de ECV y CDM a partir de 2019, con una proyección de riesgo a 10 años con los modelos ESC CVD Risk Calculator y United Kingdom Prospective Diabetes Study, considerando los factores de riesgo registrados en las bases de datos institucionales.
Resultados: de 2019 a 2028, los casos acumulados de ECV se estimaron en 2 millones y los de CDM en 960 mil, con un impacto sobre el gasto médico de 439,523 millones de pesos y sobre las prestaciones económicas de 174,085 millones. Al considerar la pandemia por COVID-19, los eventos de ECV y de las CDM aumentaron en 589 mil, con un incremento del gasto en 93,787 millones de pesos por atención médica y en 41,159 millones por prestaciones económicas.
Conclusiones: sin una intervención integral al manejo de ECV y de CDM, el gasto por ambas enfermedades seguirá incrementándose, con presiones financieras cada vez mayores.
