Publisher's Synopsis
Although evidence suggests that ADHD results in higher health care and social costs, the design and sampling procedures of most existing studies are limited in various respects. The majority of studies has been conducted using American health insurance databases, where belonging to a specific health insurer is indicative of socio-economic status. The aim of the present study is to address the many methodological limitations in the current health economics literature on ADHD by tapping into the unique Central Person Register (CPR) databases in Denmark.
