This study provides data on the costing of chronic diseases, including cluster analysis and the applicability of the Chronic Disease List. It covers data from the Medscheme Data Warehouse for the year 2001. The study explores distinct clusters with different benefit utilization, costs, and disease profiles, and also examines provider behavior within these clusters. The study includes information on chronic registrations, prevalence of CDL conditions, co-morbidity, average cost per case, and more.

The Costing of the Chronic Disease List January 2003
CDL Study Data • Data from Medscheme Data Warehouse • Data covers 2001 calendar year, extracted in August 2002 • Data fully run-off, no adjustment for IBNR • 46 options • 27 schemes • 16.103 million beneficiary months of data • Average exposure of 1,341,892 beneficiaries
Cluster Analysis • Distinct clusters: • High contains options with older, 'whiter' members with high utilisation; • Medium-older contains options with medium utilisation and older members; • Medium-younger contains options with medium utilisation and younger members; and • Low contains options with younger, 'blacker' members with low utilisation. • Additional not present in PMB study. Single large scheme where the ethnicity is predominantly so-called “Coloured”
Cluster Analysis • Different clusters experience different benefit utilisation, costs and disease profiles. Provider behaviour differs by cluster, even within the same hospital facility. • Study contains more Low cluster beneficiaries than the industry. • For industry comparisons, useWeighted industry price. • This uses 50% of the costs of the Low cluster and 100% of the other clusters. • Low clusteris more relevant to the emerging low-cost option environment.
