State Medicaid Policies Governing Access to Medications for Opioid Use Disorder (Moud) and Moud Treatment Use in a Large Sample of People Who Inject Drugs in 20 U.S. States
BACKGROUND: People who inject drugs (PWID) are especially vulnerable to harms from opioid use disorder (OUD). Medications for OUD (MOUD) effectively reduce overdose and infectious disease transmission risks. OBJECTIVE: We investigate whether state Medicaid coverage for methadone and buprenorphine is related to past-year MOUD use among PWID using cross-sectional, multilevel analyses with individual-level data on PWID from the Centers for Disease C…

OBJECTIVE: To examine the association between Medicaid managed care (MMC) penetration and mental health (MH) service use among Medicaid-enrolled non-elderly adults, with a special focus on those with MH conditions. BACKGROUND: Medicaid covers over 9 million adults living with MH conditions, with many enrolled in MMC. Despite increases in MMC enrollment over the past decade, nationwide evidence of MMC's association with MH service use during this …
Challenges facing mental health systems arising from the Covid-19 pandemic
We assessed challenges that the COVID-19 pandemic presented for mental health systems and the responses to these challenges in 14 countries in Europe and North America. Experts from each country filled out a structured questionnaire with closed- and open-ended questions between January and June 2021. We conducted thematic analysis to investigate the qualitative responses to open-ended questions, and we summarized the responses to closed-ended sur…

Effect of Medicaid Disenrollment on Health Care Utilization Among Adults With Mental Health Disorders
BACKGROUND: Medicaid is an important source of insurance coverage for those with mental health (MH) disorders in the United States. Although disruptions in Medicaid coverage are common, little is known about the dynamic relationship between Medicaid disenrollment and MH care utilization. OBJECTIVE: We estimated changes in all-cause and MH-related health care use post Medicaid disenrollment among a nationwide cohort of adults with MH disorders. SU…
Discontinuity of Medicaid Coverage
BACKGROUND: Gaps in Medicaid coverage may disrupt access to and continuity of care. This can be detrimental for beneficiaries with chronic conditions, such as major depression, for whom disruptions in access to outpatient care may lead to increased use of acute care. However, little is known about how Medicaid coverage discontinuities impact acute care utilization among adults with depression. OBJECTIVE: Examine the relationship between Medicaid …
Changes in the Supply of US Rural Health Centers, 2000‐2011
PURPOSE: Rural Health Clinics (RHCs) and Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) provide primary care in rural areas with a shortage of providers. This paper examines whether racial and ethnic minority composition was related to changes in the supply of RHCs and FQHCs in rural counties from 2000 to 2011. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of rural counties using the Area Health Resource File 2012-2013. We examined rural countie…

Emergency Department Use Among Hispanic Adults
OBJECTIVES: We provide the first known examination of differences in nonurgent and urgent emergency department (ED) usage between Hispanic and non-Hispanic white individuals, with varying levels of acculturation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We pooled cross-sectional data for Hispanic and non-Hispanic white adults (ages 18-64) from the 2011 to 2013 National Health Interview Surveys.

Insurance Status, Use of Mental Health Services, and Unmet Need for Mental Health Care in the United States
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to provide updated national estimates and correlates of service use, unmet need, and barriers to mental health treatment among adults with mental disorders. METHODS: The sample included 36,647 adults ages 18-64 (9,723 with any mental illness and 2,608 with serious mental illness) from the 2011 National Survey on Drug Use and Health. Logistic regression models were used to examine predictors of mental healt…

Addressing Public Stigma and Disparities Among Persons With Mental Illness
Stigma against mental illness is a complex construct with affective, cognitive, and behavioral components. Beyond its symbolic value, federal law can only directly address one component of stigma: discrimination. This article reviews three landmark antidiscrimination laws that expanded protections over time for individuals with mental illness. Despite these legislative advances, protections are still not uniform for all subpopulations with mental…
Public housing relocations in Atlanta, Georgia, and declines in spatial access to safety net primary care
Mental Comorbidity and Quality of Diabetes Care Under Medicaid
BACKGROUND: Patients with comorbid medical and mental conditions are at risk for poor quality of care. With the anticipated expansion of Medicaid under health reform, it is particularly important to develop national estimates of the magnitude and correlates of quality deficits related to mental comorbidity among Medicaid enrollees. METHODS: For all 657,628 fee-for-service Medicaid enrollees with diabetes during 2003 to 2004, the study compared He…
Urban Neighborhood Context and Mortality in Late Life
There are survival-related benefits of living in an affluent urban neighborhood, which we posit may be manifested through the diffusion of innovations in health care and health-promotion activities
