Introduction Despite complex care needs during critical COVID-19, the associated long-term healthcare spending is poorly understood, limiting the ability of policy-makers to prioritise necessary care and plan for future medical countermeasures.Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study of adults hospitalised with COVID-19 in the USA (April‒June 2020) using data from the national PINC AI Healthcare Database.
