During 2016-2022, Medicare part D beneficiaries filled 8,674,460 clotrimazole-betamethasone dipropionate prescriptions. Annual rates were stable (30.9 prescriptions/1,000 beneficiary-years in 2022, enough for one in every 33 beneficiaries). Diagnostic testing was infrequent, particularly among internal medicine, family medicine, and general practitioners, suggesting potential opportunities to improve diagnostic and prescribing practices.
在2016年至2022年期间,医疗保险D部分的受益人开具了8,674,460份克霉唑-倍他米松二丙酸酯处方。年开具率稳定(2022年为每1000受益人次30.9份处方,每33名受益人中就有一人足够使用)。诊断测试并不常见,尤其是在内科、家庭医学和全科医生中,这表明在改善诊断和处方实践方面存在潜在机会。
