Abstract

MS is associated with high levels of healthcare resource consumption and costs, and these costs increase with increasing disability. There is potential to significantly reduce the economic burden of MS through interventions that prevent progression from mild or moderate MS to severe MS, help support independent living at home and keep people with MS in the work force.
