A Multicentered Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing the Effectiveness of Pain Treatment Communication Tools in Emergency Department Patients With Back or Kidney Stone Pain
Objectives. To compare the effectiveness of 3 approaches for communicating opioid risk during an emergency department visit for a common painful condition. Methods. This parallel, multicenter randomized controlled trial was conducted at 6 geographically disparate emergency department sites in the United States. Participants included adult patients between 18 and 70 years of age presenting with kidney stone or musculoskeletal back pain. Participan…
Acuity-based Scheduling in Primary Care
OBJECTIVES: Triage algorithms are ubiquitous in emergency care settings, but the extent of their use in primary care is unknown. This study asks whether primary care practices prioritize patients with more acute service needs. METHODS: We used an audit study in which simulated patients were randomized to 2 clinical scenarios-a new patient seeking a routine check-up or a new patient seeking treatment for newly diagnosed hypertension-and attempted …

Community health workers (CHWs) provide peer support in diverse health care settings, but few studies have evaluated CHW interventions for intimate partner violence (IPV). We assessed the feasibility, acceptability, and safety of CHW outreach in four urban community health clinics and characterized the experiences and barriers to providing safe and effective services for women experiencing IPV. CHWs successfully enrolled and engaged IPV victims, …
Primary Care Appointment Availability for Medicaid Patients
BACKGROUND: Arkansas and Iowa received waivers from the federal government in 2014 to use federal Medicaid expansion funding to enroll beneficiaries in commercial insurance plans on the Marketplaces. One key hypothesis of these "private option" or "premium assistance" programs was that Medicaid beneficiaries would experience increased access to care. In this study, we compare new patient primary care appointment availability and wait-times for be…
Patient-centered Medical Homes and Access to Services for New Primary Care Patients
BACKGROUND: Recent efforts to revitalize primary care have centered on the patient-centered medical home (PCMH). Although enhanced access is an integral component of the PCMH model, the effect of PCMHs on access to primary care services is understudied. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether PCMH practices are associated with better access to new appointments for nonelderly adults by direct measurement. RESEARCH DESIGN: We estimated the relationship bet…
Victim Participation in Intimate Partner Violence Prosecution
Are intimate partner violence (IPV) victims safer if they use the criminal justice system? Concerns about perpetrator retaliation, in the face of data that protection orders can reduce future harm, make it important to understand how victim utilization (calling 911, talking to the prosecutor, and proceeding with prosecution) affects subsequent safety. We hypothesized participation would improve victims’ safety, measured by decreases in subsequent…

Evaluating the Effect of State Regulation of Federally Licensed Firearm Dealers on Firearm Homicide
Effective federal regulation of firearm dealers has proven difficult. Consequently, many states choose to implement their own regulations. We examined the impact of state-required licensing, record keeping of sales, allowable inspections, and mandatory theft reporting on firearm homicide from 1995 to 2010. We found that lower homicide rates were associated with states that required licensing and inspections. We concluded that firearm dealer regul…
Access Points for the Underserved
BACKGROUND: Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) are a vital source of primary care for underserved populations, such as Medicaid enrollees and the uninsured. Their role in delivering care may increase through new funding allocations in the Affordable Care Act and expanded Medicaid programs across many states. OBJECTIVE: Examine differences in appointment availability and wait-times for new patient visits between FQHCs and other providers. …
The Anatomy of a Community Health Center System-Level Intervention for Intimate Partner Violence
Engaging With Criminal Prosecution
Despite more than a decade of policies that encourage prosecutors to proceed without the victim's input or actions in cases of intimate partner violence (IPV), prosecutors still often rely on the victim's participation to move a case forward. The purpose of this study was to identify the barriers and motivators influencing female IPV victims' engagement with the criminal justice system and their preferences regarding prosecution. Findings from fo…
The Impact of Children on Legal Actions Taken by Women Victims of Intimate Partner Violence
Intimate Partner Violence Survivors’ Unmet Social Service Needs
Women who have experienced intimate partner violence (IPV) victimization are at risk for physical and mental health problems, as well as social and economic challenges. In this cross-sectional study, 173 adult, English-speaking women who had experienced police response to IPV completed a self-report questionnaire about their use of, interest in, and need for various social services and whether or not each type of service helped (or would help) th…
