^bData were from the 2008–2014 Medical Expenditure and Panel Survey. Adults refer to individuals aged ≥18 years. All statistics were appropriately weighted to ensure national representativeness. AMI was identified by ICD-9-CM code 410. AIS was identified by ICD-9-CM codes 433, 434, and 436. DM was identified by ICD-9-CM code 250.

^cExcess expenditure was calculated by the estimated expenditures for individuals with DM minus the estimated expenditures for individuals without DM.
