Declarations
:
: These studies were conducted in compliance with all relevant regulations and guidelines. The Mayo Clinic Institutional Review Board has reviewed the use of data from the OptumLabs® Data Warehouse, a large US database with de-identified administrative claims data for individuals enrolled in private and Medicare Advantage health plans. In compliance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act and the U.S. National Institutes of Health, this research represents the use of completely de-identified healthcare claims data. Accordingly, this research is deemed exempt from being considered human subjects research by both the Mayo Clinic Institutional Review Board and the NIH.
: Since all subjects have been completely de-identified, and only grouped summary data is shown, the need for additional informed consent for publication has also been waived by the Mayo Clinic Institutional Review Board. Furthermore, since all patients have been completely deidentified, it is impossible to recontact any of these individuals.
: There are no competing conflicts of interest for any of the authors with the content of this manuscript.
