Direct Economic Burden of Post‐Cancer Treatment Pain Among Cancer Survivors in the United States: A Population‐Based Retrospective Longitudinal Study

The International Journal of Health Planning and Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Post‐cancer treatment pain (PCTP) is prevalent among cancer survivors but remains understudied. It is critical to quantify PCTP prevalence over time and to estimate the resulting short and long‐term incremental healthcare expenditures (total, third‐party, and out‐of‐pocket) and out‐of‐pocket burden among cancer survivors.
