Breaking the Cycle of Drugs and Crime
Research Summary: We compared 137 felony defendants arrested before the implementation of Breaking the Cycle, a pretrial intervention with felony defendants that included drug testing, supervision, and drug treatment as needed, to 245 BTC participants. We found Significant lower rates of arrest and self‐reported drug use and crime among BTC participants during the next year. Policy Implications: Systematic intervention aimed at all drug‐involved …
Estimating the costs of substance abuse to the Medicaid hospital care program
OBJECTIVES. The purpose of this study was to develop a model, using the epidemiologic tool of attributable risk, for estimating the cost of substance abuse to Medicaid. METHODS. Based on prior substance-use and morbidity research, population attributable risks for substance abuse-related diseases were calculated. (These risks measure the proportion of total disease cases attributable to smoking, drinking, and drug use.) The risks for each disease…
DRG-Based Case Mix and Public Hospitals
The 12 acute care public hospitals in New York City (HHC hospitals) are compared with a matched group of nonpublic hospitals (non-HHC hospitals). The following questions are considered: using DRGs to define case mix, how does the case mix of HHC and non-HHC hospitals differ; to what extent do differences in case mix account for differences in average length of stay (ALOS); can factors other than case mix be identified that may explain differences…
