   Proposal Description:
   Abstract: The objective of this research is to estimate cost of Alzheimer treatments after controlling for demographic, clinical factor as well as severity (proxied by MMSE score). We will probabilistically link the data set with available VA and commercial datasets using propensity score matching to control MEMS score when calculating risk adjusted cost outcomes.
