It also found that women aged 85 and older spent the most per person in 2016, at more than 31,000 dollars per person, while men aged 85 and older spent 24,000 dollars per person that year.

"While it is well known that the U.S. spends more than any other nation on health care, very little is known about what diseases drive that spending." Joseph Dieleman, lead author of the paper and Assistant Professor at the IHME, said in a statement.
"IHME is trying to fill the information gap so that decision-makers in the public and private sectors can understand the spending landscape, and plan and allocate health resources more effectively."
