(C) Medicaid Waivers for Children With Severe Emotional Disturbance
Several states have invested in 1915(c) Home and Community Based Service (HCBS) Medicaid policies to improve outcomes and reduce costs for children and youth with significant behavioral health needs, or Severe Emotional Disturbance (SED). However, little is known about these programs and the children they serve. Through a retrospective cross-sectional analysis, this study aimed to understand if the program was successfully reaching its target pop…
Medicaid Waivers for Youth with Severe Emotional Disturbance
Medicaid Waiver Adoption for Youth With Complex Behavioral Health Care Needs
Many states have enacted Home- and Community-Based Services (HCBS) Medicaid waivers, which waive or expand Medicaid means tests to increase access to community-based public mental health services for youth with Serious Emotional Disturbance (SED). This study sought to understand key factors in State Mental Health Authorities and Medicaid Agency decision-making in adopting Medicaid waivers for youth with SED. Using purposive sampling to collect da…
The “Undeserving Poor,” Racial Bias, and Medicaid Coverage of African Americans
The Affordable Care Act’s Medicaid expansion increased coverage especially for the “undeserving poor”—nondisabled, nonelderly adults, who disproportionately are African American. However, African Americans benefited comparably less than other groups from Medicaid expansion because they disproportionately reside in states that rejected Medicaid expansion. Psychological and other social science research establishes that disapproval of providing “we…
Medicaid waivers and public sector mental health service penetration rates for youth
To assist families of youth with serious emotional disturbance in financing youth's comprehensive care, some states have sought and received Medicaid waivers. Medicaid waivers waive or relax the Medicaid means test for eligibility to provide insurance coverage to nonpoor families for expensive, otherwise out-of-reach treatment for youth with Serious Emotional Disturbance (SED). Waivers promote treatment access for the most troubled youth, and the…

Testing the factor structure of a scale to assess african american acculturation
Research has pointed to the important role that acculturation plays in understanding a range of physical health behaviors as well as psychological functioning, but only a few studies have attempted to establish reliable and valid measures of African American acculturation. The scale developed by Snowden and Hines (1999) to assess African American acculturation provided an interesting line of inquiry for the present study because no further valida…
Access to Mental Health Treatment by English Language Proficiency and Race/Ethnicity
BACKGROUND: Limited English proficiency (LEP) may contribute to mental health care disparities, yet empirical data are limited. OBJECTIVE: To quantify the language barriers to mental health care by race/ethnicity using a direct measure of LEP is the objective of the study. DESIGN: Cross-sectional analysis of the 2001 California Health Interview Survey is the study's design. PARTICIPANTS: Adults aged 18 to 64 who provided language data (n = 41,984…
Unemployment and civil commitment
We theorize that the reported association between economic indicators and the incidence of civil commitment for mental illness may result, at least in part, from reduced tolerance in the community for impaired behavior among minorities. Earlier work suggests that economically induced intolerance will be focused primarily on minority males. Based on this literature, we hypothesize that the median level of functioning among African‐American males s…
Strategies to improve minority access to public mental health services in California
The present study documented and evaluated steps taken by public mental health administrators to recruit members of underrepresented ethnic minority populations into treatment. By surveying county‐level ethnic program specialists in the decentralized California state system, the study identified strategies considered effective for reaching African American, Asian American, Latino, and Native Americans communities and overcoming barriers to treatm…
Racial/Ethnic Disparities in the Use of Mental Health Services in Poverty Areas
Objectives. This study examined racial/ethnic disparities in mental health service access and use at different poverty levels. Methods. We compared demographic and clinical characteristics and service use patterns of Whites, Blacks, Hispanics, and Asians living in low-poverty and high-poverty areas. Logistic regression models were used to assess service use patterns of minority racial/ethnic groups compared with Whites in different poverty areas.…
