Patient, facility, and community determinants of timely follow up after abnormal screening mammograms in Appalachia
PURPOSE: Examine the extent that community and organizational characteristics influence mammogram recall and biopsy rates in Appalachia. METHODS: We collected facility survey and Medicare claims (2016-2018) data on 191 FDA-registered breast imaging organizations serving 2.65 million women in 5 Appalachian states (KY, OH, PA, VA, and WV). Primary outcomes were recall rates and time to recall and biopsy. Generalized linear mixed-effects models (GLM…
Predicting Late-stage Breast Cancer Diagnosis and Receipt of Adjuvant Therapy
PURPOSE: The 2-step floating catchment area (2SFCA) method of measuring access to care has never been used to study cancer disparities in Appalachia. First, we evaluated the 2SFCA method in relation to traditional methods. We then examined the impact of access to mammography centers and primary care on late-stage breast cancer diagnosis and receipt of adjuvant hormonal therapy. METHODS: Cancer registries from Pennsylvania, Ohio, Kentucky, and Nor…
Health Care Avoidance Among Rural Populations
BACKGROUND: Previous research suggests that certain populations, including rural residents, exhibit health care avoidant behaviors more frequently than other groups. Additionally, health care avoidance is related to sociodemographics, attitudes, social expectations, ability to pay for care, and prior experiences with providers. However, previous studies have been limited to specific geographic areas, particular health conditions, or by analytic m…

OBJECTIVES: This exploratory study conducted a comparison among trust in one's personal physician, health insurer, and in the medical profession, and examined whether th…
