Acceptability of a feasibility randomized clinical trial of a microenterprise intervention to reduce sexual risk behaviors and increase employment and HIV preventive practices (Emerge) in young adults
ClinicalTrials.gov. NCT03766165 . Registered 04 December 2018
Exploring Nonresponse Bias in a Health Survey Using Neighborhood Characteristics
Objectives. We examined potential nonresponse bias in a large-scale, population-based, random-digit-dialed telephone survey in California and its association with the response rate. Methods. We used California Health Interview Survey (CHIS) data and US Census data and linked the two data sets at the census tract level. We compared a broad range of neighborhood characteristics of respondents and nonrespondents to CHIS. We projected individual-leve…

Accuracy in Self-Reported Health Insurance Coverage among Medicaid Enrollees
The largest portion of the Medicaid undercount is caused by survey reporting error--that is, Medicaid recipients misreport their enrollment in health insurance coverage surveys. In this study, we sampled known Medicaid enrollees to learn how they respond to health insurance questions and to document correlates of accurate and inaccurate reports. We found that Medicaid enrollees are fairly accurate reporters of insurance status and type of coverag…
Switching Health Insurance and Its Effects on Access to Physician Services
BACKGROUND: This study examines the factors associated with discontinuous health insurance coverage without periods of uninsurance during the past year (ie, switching coverage), and whether it has a detrimental effect on basic access to care. RESEARCH DESIGN: We analyze the 2003 California Health Interview Survey samples of adults, ages 19-64 (n = 32,850) and children, ages 0-18 (n = 13,062), using weighted bivariate and multivariate analyses. We…
Health Coverage of Low-Income Citizen and Noncitizen Wage Earners
Attitudes Toward Health Care Providers, Collecting Information About Patients' Race, Ethnicity, and Language
BACKGROUND: Experts recommend that health care providers (HCPs) collect patients' race/ethnicity and language, but we know little about public attitudes towards this. OBJECTIVES: To determine attitudes towards HCPs collecting race/ethnicity and language data. PARTICIPANTS: A telephone survey was held with 563 Californians, including 105 whites, 97 blacks, 199 Hispanics (162 Spanish-speaking), 129 Asians (73 Chinese-speaking), and 33 multiracial i…
Language Barriers to Health Care Access among Medicare Beneficiaries
This study examined language barriers to health care access among a population-based sample of Medicare seniors in California in 2001 and 2003. Results indicate that Medicare beneficiaries with limited English proficiency (LEP) had less access to a usual source of care and were less likely to receive preventive cancer screening tests. LEP Medicare beneficiaries who also were covered by Medicaid tended to fare better than those without Medicaid. T…
Is there a Language Divide in Pap Test Use
OBJECTIVE: We sought to determine whether primary language use, measured by language of interview, is associated with disparities in cervical cancer screening. DATA SOURCES: We undertook a secondary data analysis of a pooled sample of the 2001 and 2003 California Health Interview Surveys. The surveys were conducted in English, Spanish, Cantonese, Mandarin, Korean, and Vietnamese. STUDY DESIGN: The study was a cross-sectional analysis of 3-year Pa…
A Framework for Evaluating Safety-Net and other Community-Level Factors on Access for Low-Income Populations
The framework presented in this article extends the Andersen behavioral model of health services utilization research to examine the effects of contextual determinants of access. A conceptual framework is suggested for selecting and constructing contextual (or community-level) variables representing the social, economic, structural, and public policy environment that influence low-income people's use of medical care. Contextual variables capture …
Effects of Community Factors on Access to Ambulatory Care for Lower-Income Adults in Large Urban Communities
This study examines the effects of community-level and individual-level factors on access to ambulatory care for lower-income adults in 54 urban metropolitan statistical areas in the United States. Drawing on a conceptual behavioral and structural framework of access, the authors developed multivariate models for insured and uninsured lower-income adults to assess the adjusted effects of community- and individual-level factors on two indicators o…
A Comparison of Hispanic and White Adolescent Females' Use of Family Planning Services in California
The California Health Interview Survey 2001
The cultural and linguistic diversity of the U.S. population presents challenges to the design and implementation of population-based surveys that serve to inform public policies. Information derived from such surveys may be less than representative if groups with limited or no English language skills are not included. The California Health Interview Survey (CHIS), first administered in 2001, is a population-based health survey of more than 55,00…
Access to Medical Care for Low-Income Persons
This paper considers the impact of community-level variables over and above the effects of individual characteristics on healthcare acess for low-income children and adults residing in large metropolitan statistical areas (MSAs). Further, we rank MSAs’ performance in promoting healthcare access for their low-income populations. The individual-level data come from the 1995 and 1996 National Health Interview Survey (NHIS). The community-level varia…
Les politiques anti-tabac en milieu de travail
Afin de mieux comprendre la réticence chez beaucoup de travailleurs et de syndicats à appuyer les politiques antitabac et les programmes d'éducation sur les lieux de travail, les auteurs ont fait enquête auprès des membres d'un syndicat national de travailleurs dans des industries à haut risque. L'article présente les résultats de deux enquêtes. Quatre répondants sur dix se sont déclarés fumeurs, mais neuf sur dix fumeurs ont déclaré qu'ils aimer…

Problems of health insurance coverage and health care in the United States
A nearly universal consensus has developed in the United States that the current health care financing system is a failure. The system has been unable to control the continuing rapid rise in health care costs (by far, the highest in the world), and it has been unable to stem the growing population that has no health insurance coverage (at least 36 million people). There is nearly universal political agreement that government must provide health i…
