Abstract

In a US adult population aged <65 years, attributable costs due to Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) were highest in persons with hospital onset and lowest in those with community-associated CDI treated outside a hospital. The economic burden of CDI in younger adults underscores the need for additional CDI-preventive strategies.
