TY - JOUR AU - Flecker, Robert AU - O’Neal, Seth AU - Townes, John T1 - Evaluating Healthcare Claims for Neurocysticercosis by Using All-Payer All-Claims Data, Oregon, 2010–2013 T2 - Emerging Infectious Disease journal PY - 2016 VL - 22 IS - 12 SP - 2168 SN - 1080-6059 AB - To characterize the frequency of neurocysticercosis, associated diagnostic codes, and place of infection, we searched Oregon’s All Payer All-Claims dataset for 2010–2013. Twice as many cases were found by searching inpatient and outpatient data than by inpatient data alone. Studies relying exclusively on inpatient data underestimate frequency and miss less severe disease.
