The condition this service manages

Obesity (BMI ≥ 30)

25.1–42.1% of adults across 54 reporting states CDC BRFSS 2023–2024, age-adjusted state estimates

CDC-published US estimate: 34.3% (BRFSS 2024, crude prevalence — not age-adjusted, so not directly comparable to the state figures above).

CDC BRFSS prevalence is survey data covering all-payer adults 18 and older; Nevvi utilization counts Medicare fee-for-service only, largely 65 and older. The two appear side by side as context — Nevvi never combines them into a score, rating, or ranking. See Methods.

Shaded low→high on observed fee-for-service services billed from each state · the /stats tile grid, at national scope. Shading ranks the states rather than spacing them along the range, so neighboring shades mean adjacent RANKS, not equal gaps — the key names the lowest and highest; each tile carries its own figure.

One line per state market, 48 drawn; the 4 leading states by volume are in accent, the rest are context lines. Both columns share one scale, so a slope is real change. A RATE against each state’s own fee-for-service population — assumption-free, and no all-Medicare estimate is used or implied. CY2021 is the left period because CY2020 is the pandemic year and a slope off it would read as growth almost everywhere. 2 states with a rate in only one of the two years are not drawn.

Open a state market: NY · CA · FL · TX · NC · AZ · NJ · IL · MD · GA · AL · PA — the group ranking lives in the Provider groups tab. Territories bill too; the tile grid draws the 50 states and DC.
