Longitudinal Care Network Changes and Associated Healthcare Utilization Among Care Recipients
This study examines caregiver networks, including size, composition, and stability, and their associations with the likelihood of hospitalization and skilled-nursing facility (SNF) admissions. Data from the National Health and Aging Trends Study linked to Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services data were analyzed for 3855 older adults across five survey waves. Generalized estimating equation models assessed the associations. The findings indica…
Prediction of Future Health Care Utilization Through Note-extracted Psychosocial Factors
BACKGROUND: Persons with multimorbidity (≥2 chronic conditions) face an increased risk of poor health outcomes, especially as they age. Psychosocial factors such as social isolation, chronic stress, housing insecurity, and financial insecurity have been shown to exacerbate these outcomes, but are not routinely assessed during the clinical encounter. Our objective was to extract these concepts from chart notes using natural language processing and…
Racial and Ethnic Differences in Multimorbidity Changes Over Time
BACKGROUND: Our understanding of how multimorbidity progresses and changes is nascent. OBJECTIVES: Assess multimorbidity changes among racially/ethnically diverse middle-aged and older adults. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: Prospective cohort study using latent class analysis to identify multimorbidity combinations over 16 years, and multinomial logistic models to assess change relative to baseline class membership. Health and Retirement Stud…
Accuracy of Hospital Discharge Codes in Medicare Claims for Knee and Hip Replacement Patients
BACKGROUND: Despite the importance of the hospital discharge destination field ("discharge code" hereafter) for research and payment reform, its accuracy is not well established. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to examine the accuracy of discharge codes in Medicare claims. DATA SOURCES: 2012-2015 Medicare claims of knee and hip replacement patients. RESEARCH DESIGN: We identified patients' discharge location in claims and compared it with t…
Disputes of Self-reported Chronic Disease Over Time
BACKGROUND: Respondents in longitudinal health interview surveys may inconsistently report their chronic diseases across interview waves. Racial/ethnic minority adults have an increased burden of chronic diseases and may dispute chronic disease reports more frequently. OBJECTIVE: We evaluated the longitudinal association between race/ethnicity, nativity, and language of interview with disputing previously reported chronic diseases. METHODS: We pe…
Interventions that Reach into Communities-Promising Directions for Reducing Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Healthcare
Racial and Ethnic Differences in Clinical Outcome Trajectories for Care Managed Patients
BACKGROUND: Care management has demonstrated improvements in quality of care for patients with complex care needs. The extent to which these interventions benefit race/ethnic minority populations is unclear. OBJECTIVES: To characterize race/ethnic differences in the longitudinal control of clinical outcomes for patients with complex care needs enrolled in Care Management Plus, a health information technology-enabled care coordination intervention…
