Chronic Condition Burden by Veteran Status, Veterans Health Administration Enrollment, and Age Using Nationally Representative Survey Data
BACKGROUND: Historically, US Veterans have reported higher chronic disease burden than non-Veterans. However, whether Veteran and Veterans Affairs (VA) coverage status continue to be associated with chronic disease burden or how these associations vary by age, especially among younger Veterans, is unknown. OBJECTIVE: To examine the number of chronic conditions among male Veterans with and without VA coverage, and male non-Veterans, overall and by…
Burnout and Turnover Among Veterans Health Administration Primary Care Providers From Fiscal Years 2017–2021
OBJECTIVES: We examined how individual-level turnover among Veterans Health Administration primary care providers (PCPs) from fiscal years 2017 to 2021 was associated with health care system-level burnout and turnover intent. BACKGROUND: Burnout among PCPs has been well documented in recent studies, but less is known about the potential relationship between burnout and turnover. METHODS: We identified a national cohort of 6444 PCPs (physicians, n…
Does a Welcoming Environment Influence Women Veterans’ Primary Care Experiences
Organizational Climate Related to Patient-Perpetrated Sexual Harassment
BACKGROUND: Patient-perpetrated sexual harassment toward health care providers is common and adversely affects provider well-being, workforce outcomes, and patient care. Organizational climate for sexual harassment-shared perceptions about an organization's practices, policies, and procedures-is one of the strongest predictors of harassment prevalence. We conducted a pilot survey assessing provider perceptions of the Veterans Health Administratio…

Challenges to Engaging Women Veterans in Quality Improvement From Patient Care to Policy
There may be unanticipated benefits to health care policy from engaging patients in QI, especially for patients with unique health care needs who represent a minority within the health care system. However, managers require training and workflow integration of patient engagement tasks to increase their efficiency and allow for meaningful patient engagement

Accelerating Research on Suicide Risk and Prevention in Women Veterans Through Research-Operations Partnerships
Research to inform suicide prevention tailored to meet women veterans' needs is essential; however, many priorities and challenges remain unaddressed. Although Work Group efforts have achieved funding gains, further work to formalize, promote and meet the demands of a suicide prevention research agenda for women veterans requires is ongoing focus
Advancing Knowledge of Suicide Risk and Prevention Among Women
We have reached a 30-year high in the rate of suicide in the United States, with a notable increase in the suicide rate among women.1 Suicide prevention among women has become especially important within the US Departments of Defense (DoD) and Veterans Affairs (VA), as higher rates of suicide among women veterans has been observed compared with women nonveterans.2 Further, in this issue, Hoffmire and colleagues report that women veterans are 35% …

Creating a Quality-Improvement Dialogue
There is a growing consensus that a hybrid of two common approaches to quality improvement (QI), local participatory QI and expert QI, might be the best method for achieving quality care. Achieving such a hybrid requires that content experts establish an ongoing dialogue with both frontline staff members and managers. In this study we examined frontline staff members' and managers' preferences regarding how to conduct such a dialogue, and we prov…
The Evolution of Changes in Primary Care Delivery Underlying the Veterans Health Administration’s Quality Transformation
Objectives. Suffering from waning demand, poor quality, and reform efforts enabling veterans to “vote with their feet” and leave, the Veterans Health Administration (VA) health care system transformed itself through a series of substantive changes. We examined the evolution of primary care changes underlying VA’s transformation. Methods. We used 3 national organizational surveys from 1993, 1996, and 1999 that measured primary care organization, s…

The Condition of the Literature on Differences in Hospital Mortality
The quiescent interest in understanding the variations in the quality of hospital care has been revitalized recently with the government's release of hospital-specific mortality data. The authors reviewed all published studies that either named hospitals and gave their death rates or explored which of their characteristics explained the differences in their rates. The literature is only in fair condition. It is sparse and flawed, and, before the …
Ambulatory Testing for Capitation and Fee-For-Service Patients in the Same Practice Setting
Previous studies of the impact of varying reimbursement incentives on physician behavior have not explored the simultaneous implications for patients' health outcomes. Using a single group of physicians who provided care for hypertensive patients with either capitation (N = 99) or fee-for-service (N = 66) health insurance plans, physicians' test-ordering behavior and patients' subsequent health outcomes were examined. After controlling for patien…
Health Habit Counseling Amidst Competing Demands
Objective. This study assesses the effects of competing demands, such as poor health habits or new medical problems, on health-habit counseling during a primary care visit. Methods. We surveyed a consecutive sample of 1,259 patients visiting primary care clinicians at an academic VA medical center. Before the visit, patients reported their health status, health habits, and sociodemographics; immediately after the visit, patients reported reasons …
From Understanding Health Care Provider Behavior to Improving Health Care
Basic science and health care research provide the evidence base for the scientific practice of medicine. Over the past 2 decades, as increasingly refined tools for improving health and health care have been developed, the health care community has attempted to bridge the gap between available tools and actual health care practices. This gap can be bridged only by influencing health care provider behavior. The VA Quality Enhancement Research Init…
Primary Care Practice Management in Rural and Urban Veterans Health Administration Settings
Limited access to specialty care in rural settings may result in more expectations of primary care providers and a higher demand for primary care The authors used survey and administrative data from 1999 from the Veterans Health Administration (vHA) to compare primary care practice management and performance in 19 rural to 103 urban VHA hospitals nationally Rural VHA hospitals me smaller, less likely to be academically affiliated, and had fewer i…
What Patient Population Does Visit-Based Sampling in Primary Care Settings Represent
BACKGROUND: Evaluations of outpatient interventions often rely on consecutive sampling of clinic visitors, and assume that study results generalize to the population of patients cared for. OBJECTIVE: The representativeness of such visit-based sampling compared with the population of patients seen during the same year, in terms of sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of the user groups that visit-based sampling yielded were assessed. METH…

Gender Disparities in Veterans Health Administration Care
BACKGROUND: In an effort to assess and reduce gender-related quality gaps, the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) has promoted gender-based research. Historically, such appraisals have often relied on secondary databases, with little attention to methodological implications of the fact that VHA provides care to some nonveteran patients. OBJECTIVES: To determine whether conclusions about gender differences in utilization and cost of VHA care cha…

The Impact of Integrated HIV Care on Patient Health Outcomes
BACKGROUND: Control of viral replication through combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) improves patient health outcomes. Yet many HIV-infected patients have comorbidities that pose social and clinical barriers to achieving viral suppression. Integration of subspecialty services into HIV primary care may overcome such barriers. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate effect of integrated HIV care (IHC) on suppression of HIV replication. RESEARCH DESIGN: A retr…
