Street-level bureaucracy and relational autonomy in HIV status-neutral care implementation
Barriers and facilitators to implementing status-neutral HIV care in an urban jail system
BACKGROUND: People who use drugs face barriers to accessing HIV prevention tools. The status-neutral model for HIV care starts with the HIV test and offers linkage to HIV treatment if the person tests positive and linkage to pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) if the person tests negative. The goal of this study was to evaluate barriers and facilitators impacting the implementation of a status-neutral HIV model of care in the jail setting. METHODS: B…
Trends in Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Data Collection
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to determine response patterns to sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI) questions in the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) over time and to assess nonresponse and indeterminate responses by demographic characteristics. METHODS: This is a secondary data analysis of the SOGI module of the BRFSS. We used data from 46 states and Guam that implemented SOGI questions between 2014 and 2022. W…
Health Care Workers’ Perspectives on Collecting Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity in the Adult Primary Care Setting
BACKGROUND: Despite numerous calls for standardized collection of sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI) data in clinical settings, uptake of this practice still lags. OBJECTIVES: This study conducted a preimplementation assessment of staff attitudes toward SOGI data collection within an adult primary care practice in an urban academic medical center in the northeastern United States. RESEARCH DESIGN: We created a process map of the flow o…
Diabetes Control During Massachusetts Insurance Reform
The Influence of Health Insurance Stability on Racial/Ethnic Differences in Diabetes Control and Management
Stable insurance coverage was associated with improved DM outcomes for all racial / ethnic groups, but did not eliminate racial ethnic disparities
Screening for Immigration-Related Health Concerns in a Federally Qualified Health Center Serving a Diverse Latinx Community
Insurance Stability and Cancer Screening Behaviors
Background: Disparities in rates of cancer screening are observed in underserved populations. Lack of stable health insurance may contribute to these disparities. The goal of this study was to examine the association between insurance stability and up-to-date cancer screening in underserved populations. Methods and Findings: We enrolled 333 community participants aged 40–74 years across four different sites in three states: Chinese Americans in B…
Racial Differences in Insurance Stability After Health Insurance Reform
BACKGROUND: One of the potential benefits of insurance reform is greater stability of insurance and reduced coverage disparities by race and ethnicity. OBJECTIVES: We examined the temporal trends in insurance coverage by racial/ethnic group before and after Massachusetts Insurance Reform by abstracting records across 2 urban safety net hospital systems. RESEARCH DESIGN: We examined adjusted odds of being uninsured and incident rate ratios of gain…
Symbolic boundaries, subcultural capital and prescription drug misuse across youth cultures
Prescription drug misuse among young adults has surged over the past decade. Yet the contexts surrounding this misuse remain unclear, particularly the subcultural contexts. Many young urban adults participate in youth cultures. This article describes the subcultural contexts of prescription drug misuse in youth subcultures. Drawing on ethnographic data collected over 12 months from different youth cultural scenes, the authors describe the subcult…
Prevalence and correlates of prescription drug misuse among socially active young adults
