RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Using 2011-2021 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System data and a difference-in-differences approach, we compared outcomes before and after expansion in states classified by PCP supply. The sample included 85,375 adults aged…

  • Income Disparities in the Prevalence, Severity, and Costs of Co-occurring Chronic and Behavioral Health Conditions

    Peter J Cunningham, Peter Cunningham et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2018Referências: 27

    BACKGROUND: Behavioral health problems usually co-occur along with physical health problems, resulting in higher health care costs. These co-occurring conditions are likely to be more prevalent and serious among low income patients, affecting both the quality and costs of care. OBJECTIVE: To examine the prevalence, severity, and health care costs of co-occurring chronic and behavioral health conditions among low income people compared with higher…

  • Changes in Emergency Department Utilization After Early Medicaid Expansion in California

    Lindsay M Sabik, Peter J Cunningham et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2017Referências: 20

    BACKGROUND: Medicaid expansions aim to improve access to primary care, which could reduce nonemergent (NE) use of the emergency department (ED). In contrast, Medicaid enrollees use the ED more than other groups, including the uninsured. Thus, the expected impact of Medicaid expansion on ED use is unclear. OBJECTIVES: To estimate changes in total and NE ED visits as a result of California's early Medicaid expansion under the Affordable Care Act. I…

  • Differences Between Symptom-Specific and General Survey Questions of Unmet Need in Measuring Insurance and Racial/Ethnic Disparities in Access to Care

    Peter J Cunningham, Peter Cunningham et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2007Referências: 7

    OBJECTIVE: To examine differences in insurance and racial/ethnic disparities in access to care between a single-item measure of general unmet medical need and a multi-item measure of symptom-specific unmet medical need. DATA SOURCE: The 2003 Community Tracking Study Household Survey, which included both a single question about any unmet medical needs over the last year, and a measure of unmet medical need keyed to the recent occurrence of 1 of 15…

  • What Accounts for Differences in Uninsurance Rates across Communities

    Open AccessPeter J Cunningham, Peter Cunningham et al.ARTICLEINQUIRY The Journal of Health…2001

    Using data from the 1996-97 Community Tracking Study household survey, this study examines variations in uninsurance rates across communities in the United States. Specifically, regression-based decomposition is used to identify factors that account for high rates of uninsurance in some communities. Differences in explained rates between "high uninsurance" and "low uninsurance" communities are the result of differences in the racial/ethnic compos…

    Peter J Cunningham, Peter Cunningham et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2001Referências: 18

    BACKGROUND: By requiring or encouraging enrollees to obtain a usual source of care, managed care programs hope to improve access to care without incurring higher costs. OBJECTIVES: (1) To examine the effects of managed care on the likelihood of low-income persons having a usual source of care and a usual physician, and; (2) To examine the association between usual source of care and access. RESEARCH DESIGN: Cross-sectional survey of households co…

    Peter J Cunningham, Peter Cunningham et al.ARTICLEThe Future of Children1994Citada por: 6

    Peter J. Cunningham, Beth A. Hahn, The Changing American Family: Implications for Children's Health Insurance Coverage and the Use of Ambulatory Care Services, The Future of Children, Vol. 4, No. 3, Critical Health Issues for Children and Youth (Winter, 1994), pp. 24-42

  • The Use of Ambulatory Health Care Services by American Indians with Disabilities

    Peter J Cunningham, Peter Cunningham et al.ARTICLEMedical Care1993

    Although most American Indians and Alaska Natives have access to health care through the Indian Health Service (IHS), it is uncertain whether IHS is able to provide all necessary health services to those with disabilities. Although IHS eligibles can use health services other than those provided or sponsored by IHS, this may be precluded by high rates of poverty, low rates of other health insurance coverage, and the lack of private providers in ma…

  • Children without Health Insurance

    Alan C Monheit, Peter J Cunningham et al.ARTICLEThe Future of Children1992Citada por: 11

    Data from two nationally representative household surveys—the 1977 National Medical Care Expenditure Survey (NMCES) and the 1987 National Medical Expenditure Survey (NMES)—are used to examine changes in children’s health insurance status over the past decade. The consequences of disparities in children’s health insurance status for their use of health services in each of these years and over time is explored. The data demonstrate that children we…

  • Medical Care Use and Expenditures for Children across Stages of the Family Life Cycle

    Peter J Cunningham, Peter CunninghamARTICLEJournal of Marriage and the Family1990Citada por: 3

    Past research has largely assumed that medical care use and expenditures for children are uniform across stages of family development. This study challenges that notion and investigates (a) differences in use of and expenditures for children's health services across stages of the family life cycle, and (b) the extent to which family characteristics affect medical care use and expenditures for children differently, depending on stage of the family…
