Incorrect Data Set Used for Analyses
Correction to the Original Research article “Behavior-Based Diabetes Management: Impact on Care, Hospitalizations, and Costs” published in the March 2021 issue of The American Journal of Managed Care®.
Am J Manag Care. 2022;28(4):192. https://doi.org/10.37765/ajmc.2022.88863
In the Original Research article “Behavior-Based Diabetes Management: Impact on Care, Hospitalizations, and Costs” published in the March 2021 issue of The American Journal of Managed Care®, there was an error in the data set that the authors used to conduct analyses of the propensity-matched cohorts. An inadvertent coding error occurred in the reconstruction of the data set from administrative claims before the data set was provided to the authors’ independent statistical consultant for analysis. The authors have rerun the analyses with the corrected data and updated the Data Analysis and Results sections of the text, as well as the tables and the eAppendix.
The article was corrected online.
