aExpenditures based on 2013-2015 and 2002-2003 data were converted to 2017 medical prices. Data sources: 2013-2015 Medical Expenditure Panel Survey, 16 2013-2015 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System, 17 and 2014 National Health Expenditure Accounts. 18

bPercentage changes for total DAHE were calculated using expenditures rounded to the nearest dollar and, as a result, may be different from percentage changes calculated based on the expenditures presented in the table that are expressed in millions $. Similarly, percentage changes for disability prevalence were calculated using prevalence rounded to one decimal point and, as a result, may be different from percentage changes calculated based on the prevalence presented in the table and rounded to the nearest percentage point.
