Understanding the characteristics of Latino individuals with first-time DUI offenses to facilitate effective interventions
Literature shows that Latinos who drink are more likely to experience alcohol-related consequences and less likely to seek care for alcohol misuse than Whites. We aim to understand characteristics, consumption patterns, and openness to treatment among Latino first-time offenders driving under the influence. Latino participants were significantly younger (29.0 years) than non-Latinos (37.7 years). In adjusted models, Latino participants were signi…
What Role Does Efficiency Play in Understanding the Relationship Between Cost and Quality in Physician Organizations
BACKGROUND: The belief that there is inefficiency, or the potential to improve patient health at current levels of spending, is driving the push for greater value in health care. Previous studies demonstrate overuse of a narrow set of services, suggesting provider inefficiency, but existing studies neither quantify inefficiency more broadly nor assess its variation across physician organizations (POs). DATA AND METHODS: We used data on quality of…
Intervening with Practitioners to Improve the Quality of Prevention
The Quality of Mental Health Care for Veterans of Operation Enduring Freedom/Operation Iraqi Freedom
BACKGROUND: Some Operation Enduring Freedom/Operation Iraqi Freedom (OEF/OIF) veterans experience serious mental health (MH) problems. As OEF/OIF soldiers leave active military duty, their growing numbers pose a challenge to the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) in delivering high-quality mental health/substance-use disorder (MH/SUD) care. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether the quality of MH/SUD care provided by the VA differs by OEF/OIF veteran s…
Establishing and Evaluating the Key Functions of an Interactive Systems Framework Using an Assets‐Getting to Outcomes Intervention
Community practitioners can face difficulty in achieving outcomes demonstrated by prevention science. Building a community practitioner's prevention capacity—the knowledge and skills needed to conduct critical prevention practices—could improve the quality of prevention and its outcomes. The purpose of this article is to: (1) describe how an intervention called Assets‐Getting To Outcomes (AGTO) was used to establish the key functions of the ISF a…
Emotional Distress and Cognitive Functioning of Older Couples
Objective: This article examines the relationship between cognitive functioning and emotional distress in a sample of 2,684 married couples from the 2006 and 2008 Korean Longitudinal Study of Aging. Method: Using the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression (CESD) scale and the Mini-Mental State Exam (MMSE), we analyze the interrelation between emotional and cognitive health for individuals and spouses with with dyadic regression models. We te…
Promoting evidence‐based practices
Prevention support systems (PSSs) are designed to help communities implement evidence‐based practices (EBPs). Little is known about the factors that influence their adoption. In this article, we examined adoption of a PSS for substance abuse prevention called Getting To Outcomes (GTO) ® among staff in two community coalitions with varying levels of exposure to it over a 2‐year period. A multistage regression model was used to determine the relati…
Perceived Barriers to Treatment for Adolescent Depression
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Adolescent depression is common, disabling, and is associated with academic, social, behavioral, and health consequences. Despite the availability of evidence-based depression care, few teens receive it, even when recognized by primary care clinicians. Perceived barriers such as teen worry about what others think or parent concerns about cost and access to care may contribute to low rates of care. We sought to better und…
The Getting To Outcomes Demonstration and Evaluation
Communities are increasingly being required by state and federal funders to achieve outcomes and be accountable, yet are often not provided the guidance or the tools needed to successfully meet this challenge. To improve the likelihood of achieving positive outcomes, the Getting To Outcomes (GTO) intervention (manual, training, technical assistance) is designed to provide the necessary guidance and tools, tailored to community needs, in order to …
Costs of Intravenous Adverse Drug Events in Academic and Nonacademic Intensive Care Units
BACKGROUND: Adverse drug events (ADEs), particularly those involving intravenous medications (IV-ADEs), are common among intensive care unit (ICU) patients and may increase hospitalization costs. Precise cost estimates have not been reported for academic ICUs, and no studies have included nonacademic ICUs. OBJECTIVES: To estimate increases in costs and length of stay after IV-ADEs at an academic and a nonacademic hospital. RESEARCH DESIGN: This s…
Did the Medicare Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility Prospective Payment System Result in Changes in Relative Patient Severity and Relative Resource Use
BACKGROUND: The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services implemented a prospective payment system (PPS) in 2002 for care provided by inpatient rehabilitation facilities (IRFs) to Medicare beneficiaries. OBJECTIVE: We sought to examine changes in the composition of Medicare beneficiaries in IRFs by examining the percentages of patients having worse functional or health status than the average for their payment groups (relative severity) and of p…
Identification of and Guidance for Problem Drinking by General Medical Providers
BACKGROUND: Heavy alcohol use is associated with health costs and medical problems. There has been a growing consensus that primary care patients should be screened for alcohol problems. OBJECTIVES: We examined rates at which patients were asked about alcohol or drug use and problems, extending research in this area by using a standardized problem drinking instrument with a large national sample, examining community level variables, and assessing…
Abuse in the Close Relationships of People With HIV
Evaluating the Planned Substitution of the Minimum Data Set-Post Acute Care for Use in the Rehabilitation Hospital Prospective Payment System
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to evaluate the payment implications of substituting the Minimum Data Set-Post Acute Care (MDS-PAC) for the FIM trade mark instrument for use in the planned prospective payment system (PPS) for inpatient rehabilitation hospitals. FIM trade mark is a trademark of the Uniform Data System for Medical Rehabilitation, a division of UB Foundation Activites, Inc. RESEARCH DESIGN: We used a prospective cross-sec…
