Depression and anxiety are associated with increased healthcare costs and opioid use for patients with femoroacetabular impingement undergoing hip arthroscopy: Analysis of a claims database
Arthroscopy Mar 06, 2020
Jacobs CA, Hawk GS, Jochimsen KN, et al. - Investigators intended to ascertain whether opioid use and healthcare costs in the year before and following hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) differ between those with or without depression or anxiety. This study distinguished FAI individuals who underwent hip arthroscopy between October 2010 and December 2015 (Current Procedural Terminology codes 29,914 [femoroplasty], 29,915 [acetabuloplasty], and/or 29,916 [labral repair]) using the Truven Health Marketscan database. Before surgery, this study found depression or anxiety claims in 5,208/14,830 patients (35.1%). The outcomes of this study demonstrated that both before and following hip arthroscopy, opioid use and healthcare costs were significantly greater for FAI individuals with comorbid depression or anxiety.
