Socioeconomic Factors at the Intersection of Race and Ethnicity Influencing Health Risks for People with Disabilities
Prevalence and Causes of Paralysis—United States, 2013
Objectives. To estimate the prevalence and causes of functional paralysis in the United States. Methods. We used the 2013 US Paralysis Prevalence & Health Disparities Survey to estimate the prevalence of paralysis, its causes, associated sociodemographic characteristics, and health effects among this population. Results. Nearly 5.4 million persons live with paralysis. Most persons with paralysis were younger than 65 years (72.1%), female (51.7%),…
Development of a community health inclusion index
The CHII is the first instrument to operationalize community health inclusion into a comprehensive assessment tool that can be used by public health professionals and community coalitions to examine the critical supports needed for improving healthy, active living among people with disabilities
Reducing Obesity Among People With Disabilities
Achieving healthy weight for people with disabilities in the United States is a challenge. Obesity rates for adults and children with disabilities are significantly higher than for those without disabilities, with differences remaining even when controlling for other factors. Reasons for this disparity include lack of healthy food options for many people with disabilities living in restrictive environments, difficulty with chewing or swallowing f…
A comparative examination of disability anti‐discrimination legislation in the United States and Korea
This analysis compares legislation of the first country to enact these laws, the USA and its Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in original and amended versions, with Korea, which recently passed its Anti‐Discrimination and Remedies for Persons with Disabilities Act in 2007. The intent is to identify ways in which countries such as Korea have learned from the American experience, focusing on similarities and differences between the two pieces …
Emergency Response Training Practices for People With Disabilities
Each year thousands of people are potentially affected by the types of emergency preparedness and response training plans practiced in their communities. Between 1998 and 2002, 3,000 counties in the United States declared disasters that have included floods, tornadoes, hurricanes, winter storms, thunderstorms, fires, ice storms, and earthquakes. Emergency preparedness for all people, including people with disabilities, may involve natural disaste…
Disaster Preparedness and Response for Persons With Mobility Impairments
The objective of this study was to assess the impact of a major disaster on county-level preparedness for persons with mobility disabilities. The authors surveyed 30 randomly selected Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) disaster sites between 1998 and 2003 to determine disability surveillance capacity, the extent to which the disaster experience influenced changes in policies and practices, whether persons with disabilities were involved i…

The Effect of Health Communications on a Statewide West Nile Virus Public Health Education Campaign
Evaluating a Medicaid Home and Community-Based Physical Disability Waiver
State Medicaid waivers have fostered innovative health delivery systems for persons with special needs. Yet their overall cost effectiveness remains poorly understood. Changes were recently analyzed in Medicaid health services and costs for persons newly enrolled in the Kansas Physical Disability (PD) Waiver and found that ambulatory services increased, consistent with meeting enrollees' unmet medical needs and their access to enriched services. …
Understanding emerging disabilities
This research seeks to understand social and environmental characteristics that distinguish emerging from traditional disability populations. We qualitatively analysed how emerging disabilities are understood by persons with disabilities, and used these themes with a public use data source to analyse differences between emerging and traditional disabilities. Our findings first illustrate the difficulty in diagnosing and categorizing emerging disa…
Changes in Reported Health Status and Unmet Need for Children Enrolling in the Kansas Children’s Health Insurance Program
To date, most work investigating the effect of the State Children’s Health Insurance Program on uninsured children has focused on eligibility or insurability.1–5 Few studies have analyzed its effect on children’s health status or access to health care. Current literature discusses the experience of children newly covered by state or privately funded children’s health insurance programs that existed before the Balanced Budged Act of 1997 that esta…
Rational Choice in Medicaid Managed Care
Market-based health care policies cast patients as active decision-making consumers who are able to choose among health plans and select the highest quality and lowest priced providers. Embodied in the Consumer Assessment of Health Plans Study (CAHPS), a national policy initiative based on assumptions of rational choice, such a model has recently been extended to low income populations enrolled in the U.S. Medicaid program. This paper describes a…
Developing Comprehensive Statewide Disability Information Systems
Enhancing information capacity that can be used to improve services for people with disabilities remains an ongoing public health challenge. Research that can lead to improved state data systems for this population is still in its infancy. In this exploratory study, we have identified common characteristics needed to manage program services within one state's provider network and proposed a conceptual framework for developing a statewide system. …
Similarities and Differences in Choosing Health Plans
BACKGROUND: Increasingly, consumers have multiple health insurance options. New information is being developed to help consumers with these choices. OBJECTIVES: To study similarities and differences in how the publicly and privately insured choose health plans. To explore the effect of traditional enrollment materials and reports developed by the Consumer Assessment of Health Plans Study (CAHPS) on consumers' perceptions and decision-making. RESE…
