Summary

U.S. Medicare spending per capita

Explanation

Research by The Dartmouth Institute for Health Policy and Clinical Practice in the Dartmouth Atlas showed that in 2006, Medicare spending varied significantly by state. Other research quoted by the CEA Report indicated that up to 30% of Medicare costs could be saved if the middle- and high-cost states spent at the level of the lower-cost states.<a href="#cite_note-1">[1]</a> Bear in mind that this is a Medicare comparison, so all the persons in the population analyzed are over 65.
