Medicaid Expansion Under the Affordable Care Act: Potential Changes in Receipt of Mental Health Treatment Among Low-Income Nonelderly Adults With Serious Mental Illness
Objectives. We designed this study to examine differences in receipt of mental health treatment between low-income uninsured nonelderly adults with serious mental illness (SMI) who were eligible for Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and their existing Medicaid counterparts. Assessing these differences might estimate the impact of the Medicaid expansion efforts under the ACA on receipt of mental health treatment among uninsured nonelder…
Suicidal Ideation Among Community-Dwelling Adults in the United States
Objectives. We examined the prevalence and correlates of past-year suicidal ideation among US community-dwelling adults. Methods. We examined data from 183 100 persons aged 18 years or older (including 9800 sampled adults with past-year suicidal ideation) who participated in the 2008–2011 National Survey on Drug Use and Health. We applied descriptive analyses and pooled and stratified (by age and major depression) multivariate logistic regression…
A Comprehensive Examination of the Influence of State Tobacco Control Programs and Policies on Youth Smoking
Objectives. We examined the influence of tobacco control policies (tobacco control program expenditures, smoke-free air laws, youth access law compliance, and cigarette prices) on youth smoking outcomes (smoking susceptibility, past-year initiation, current smoking, and established smoking). Methods. We combined data from the 2002 to 2008 National Surveys on Drug Use and Health with state and municipality population data from the US Census Bureau…
Substance use in the US college-age population: Differences according to educational status and living arrangement
OBJECTIVES: Substance use in the college-age population is an important public health and educational concern. This study compared rates of use among college students and nonstudents, including high school dropouts, from a single data source representative of the nation. METHODS: Rates of use were estimated from the combined National Household Surveys on Drug Abuse from 1991 to 1993. Logistic regression models were used to test the effects of edu…
Drug abuse discharges from non-federal short-stay hospitals
An analysis of inpatient drug abuse cases was done using the National Hospital Discharge Survey (NHDS). An estimated two million discharges with a drug abuse diagnosis occurred in non-federal short-stay hospitals during 1979-85, a figure which is believed to be an underestimate. Compared to other hospital inpatients, drug abuse inpatients are more likely to be male, ages 15-44, and other than White race. Increases in hospital use for drug abuse t…
