Abstract

Introduction Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a rare, severe progressive neuromuscular disease. Health insurance claims allow characterization of population-level real-world outcomes, based on observed healthcare resource use. An analysis of data specific to those with Medicaid insurance is presently unavailable. The objective was to describe the real-world clinical course of DMD based on claims data from Medicaid-insured individuals in the USA.
