Key Points Question How has mortality associated with adverse effects of medical treatment in the United States changed over time, by state, age, and sex? Findings In this cohort study, there was a decrease in the national age-standardized mortality rate associated with adverse effects of medical treatment in the United States between 1990 and 2016. Although no differences by sex were observed, increased mortality due to adverse effects of medical treatment was associated with advancing age, and geographic variability was noted. Meaning Global Burden of Disease 2016 results suggest that mortality associated with the adverse effects of medical treatment has decreased modestly over the past 25 years, and although the degree of improvement varies by state, it appears that an increased burden of adverse effects of medical treatment on aging populations continues to affect the US health system.
