US adults with hypertension
Nonhypertensive peers
Annual healthcare expenditure
Hypertension imposes a massive economic burden in the US, accounting for approximately $131 billion in healthcare costs and nearly $2000 higher annual expenditure per patient.
Individuals with hypertension are estimated to face nearly 2000 higher annual healthcare expenditure compared with their nonhypertensive peers. This trend has been relatively stable over 12 years. Healthcare costs associated with hypertension account for about 131 billion. This warrants intense effort toward hypertension prevention and management.
