Webinar Description: We use a 100% sample of Colorado’s All-Payers Claims Database (APCD) to estimate healthcare utilization among patients diagnosed with Long COVID. We also calculate healthcare expenditures after a diagnosis. The APCD contains insurance claims data for close to 75% of the state population.
