4 Fig 3 Actual (realized) annual expenditures of asthma care (blue columns) and minimum (red columns) and maximum (gray columns) scenarios of theoretic annual costs. The minimum scenario represents a theoretic annual expenditure if all of the 3-fold increase in prevalence was caused by patients with mild asthma. The maximum scenario assumes that the disease severity and standard of care remained at the 1987 level. The green line represents the percentage of patients receiving ICS medication.
