    By merging data from the National Health Interview Survey (2004–2016) with a census of buildings financed by the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC), this study provides national estimates for the health status and healthcare access among low-income adults living in LIHTC-financed housing.

  • High-deductible Health Plans and Nonfatal Opioid Overdose

    Julia C P Eddelbuettel, Colleen L Barry et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2023References: 10

    OBJECTIVES: Opioid-related overdose is a public health emergency in the United States. Meanwhile, high-deductible health plans (HDHPs) have become more prevalent in the United States over the last 2 decades, raising concern about their potential for discouraging high-need populations, like those with opioid use disorder (OUD), from engaging in care that may mitigate the probability of overdose. This study assesses the impact of an employer offeri…

    Alisa B Busch, Alene Kennedy‐Hendrick et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2023References: 22

There has been little examination of how to measure methadone continuity in claims data. OBJECTIVES: To develop an approach for measuring methadone continuity in claims data, and compare estimates of methadone versus buprenorphine continuity. RESEARCH DESIGN: Observational cohort study using de-identified commercial claims from Optu…

  • Is exposure to pharmaceutical direct-to-consumer advertising for heart disease and diabetes associated with physical activity and dietary behavior

    Open AccessJeff Niederdeppe, Rosemary J Avery et al.ARTICLESocial Science & Medicine2023References: 29

  • Association of Direct-to-Consumer Advertising of Prescription Drugs With Consumer Health-Related Intentions and Beliefs Among Individuals at Risk of Cardiovascular Disease

    Open AccessMatthew D Eisenberg, Yashaswini Singh et al.ARTICLEJAMA Health Forum2022

    In this cross-sectional study, results showed that brief exposure to pharmaceutical DTCA had a large and positive association with medication-related demand intentions with no offsetting negative spillovers on lifestyle-related intentions. Lack of associations with price disclosure in DTCA suggests that policy makers should consider alternative strategies to promote value-based decision-making for prescription drugs

    Policymakers are using different ways to measure the community benefit provided by non-profit hospitals because different policy makers have different policy objectives. We compare 3 commonly used measures of community benefit; examine the correlation across the 3 measures; examine how the distribution of community benefits varies across non-profit hospitals; and compare the factors associated with the level of community benefit for each definiti…

  • The Impact of Various Risk Assessment Time Frames on the Performance of Opioid Overdose Forecasting Models

    Hsien-Yen Chang, Hsien‐Yen Chang et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2020References: 15

    BACKGROUND: An individual's risk for future opioid overdoses is usually assessed using a 12-month "lookback" period. Given the potential urgency of acting rapidly, we compared the performance of alternative predictive models with risk information from the past 3, 6, 9, and 12 months. METHODS: We included 1,014,033 Maryland residents aged 18-80 with at least 1 opioid prescription and no recorded death in 2015. We used 2015 Maryland prescription dr…
