Difference in mean expenditures between MDD w/Med and no MDD, between MDD w/out Med and no MDD were all statistically different (p < 0.01, one tailed).
Difference in mean expenditures for outpatient, prescription drugs and total expenditures between MDD w/Med and MDD w/out Med (except for inpatient expenses; not significant at 5%) were statistically different (p < 0.01).
Difference in mean expenditures between ITDM and NITDM means were statistically different for all corresponding categories (p < 0.01).
