Adding Self-Care Complementary and Integrative Health (CIH) Therapies to Care for Chronic Pain–The Assessing Pain, Patient Reported Outcomes and Complementary Health (APPROACH) Study
BACKGROUND: Health care systems and insurers are expanding coverage for practitioner-delivered and self-care complementary and integrative health (CIH) therapies for chronic pain. OBJECTIVES: To determine if combining practitioner-delivered and self-care CIH therapies (PD/SC-CIH) improves pain outcomes more than practitioner-delivered CIH (PD-CIH) therapies alone. RESEARCH DESIGN: Pragmatic nonrandomized trial. Structural nudges and the availabil…
Veteran Perspectives on Care Coordination Between Veterans Affairs and Community Providers: A Qualitative Analysis
OBJECTIVE: To investigate veteran perspectives on challenges in care coordination between US Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) clinics and community providers in rural areas. METHODS: We completed qualitative interviews with a geographically diverse sample of 51 veterans who had used both VA and community health care services. Interviews were audio-recorded and transcribed verbatim. We used directed content analysis (informed by previous work w…
Medical and Surgical Readmissions in the Veterans Health Administration: What Proportion are Related to the Index Hospitalization
BACKGROUND: Readmissions are an attractive quality measure because they offer a broad view of quality beyond the index hospitalization. However, the extent to which medical or surgical readmissions reflect quality of care is largely unknown, because of the complexity of factors related to readmission. Identifying those readmissions that are clinically related to the index hospitalization is an important first step in closing this knowledge gap. O…
Examining the Impact of the AHRQ Patient Safety Indicators (PSIs) on the Veterans Health Administration: The Case of Readmissions
BACKGROUND: By focusing primarily on outcomes in the inpatient setting one may overlook serious adverse events that may occur after discharge (eg, readmissions, mortality) as well as opportunities for improving outpatient care. OBJECTIVE: Our overall objective was to examine whether experiencing an Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality Patient Safety Indicator (PSI) event in an index medical or surgical hospitalization increased the likeliho…
Validating the Patient Safety Indicators in the Veterans Health Administration: Do They Accurately Identify True Safety Events
BACKGROUND: The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) Patient Safety Indicators (PSIs) use administrative data to detect potentially preventable in-hospital adverse events. However, few studies have determined how accurately the PSIs identify true safety events. OBJECTIVES: We examined the criterion validity, specifically the positive predictive value (PPV), of 12 selected PSIs using clinical data abstracted from the Veterans Health A…
