Estimation of multiple chronic condition (MCC) prevalence throughout adulthood provides a critical reflection of MCC burden. We analyzed electronic health record codes for 58 conditions to estimate MCC prevalence for All of Us (AoU) Research Program adult participants (N=242,828).  Approximately 76% of AoU participants were diagnosed with MCCs, with over 40% having 6 or more conditions and prevalence increasing with age; the most frequently occurring MCC combinations varied by age category (i.e., mental health conditions in early adulthood and physical health conditions in middle adulthood through advanced old age). We report notable prevalence of MCC throughout adulthood and variability in MCC condition combinations by age category in AoU participants. These findings highlight the need for targeted, innovative care modalities and population health initiatives to address MCC burden throughout adulthood.

I confirm all relevant ethical guidelines have been followed, and any necessary IRB and/or ethics committee approvals have been obtained.

Yes

The details of the IRB/oversight body that provided approval or exemption for the research described are given below:

Per the All of Us Research Program, this study was exempt from human subjects’ approval as only deidentified data were analyzed.

I confirm that all necessary patient/participant consent has been obtained and the appropriate institutional forms have been archived, and that any patient/participant/sample identifiers included were not known to anyone (e.g., hospital staff, patients or participants themselves) outside the research group so cannot be used to identify individuals.

Yes

I understand that all clinical trials and any other prospective interventional studies must be registered with an ICMJE-approved registry, such as ClinicalTrials.gov. I confirm that any such study reported in the manuscript has been registered and the trial registration ID is provided (note: if posting a prospective study registered retrospectively, please provide a statement in the trial ID field explaining why the study was not registered in advance).

Yes

I have followed all appropriate research reporting guidelines, such as any relevant EQUATOR Network research reporting checklist(s) and other pertinent material, if applicable.
