OBJECTIVE: The presence of psychologic distress in older adults may be associated with decreased adherence to recommended preventive-care services. This analysis aimed to measure the association between psychologic distress and adherence to United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF)-recommended preventive-care services among older adults in the United States. DESIGN: We undertook a cross-sectional analysis of 3655 U.S. community-dwelling elderly from the 2001 Medical Expenditure Panel (MEPS) survey. MEASUREMENTS: The presence of psychologic distress was captured by the Mental Component Survey (MCS) of the SF-12. The receipt of 9 preventive care services were captured using MEPS: hypertension screening, influenza vaccination, fecal occult blood testing or sigmoidoscopy, mammography, clinical breast examination, cholesterol screening, prostate-specific antigen test, routine check-up, and dental checkup. RESULTS: Elderly reporting psychologic distress were 30% less likely than nondistressed elderly to receive influenza vaccination (OR = 0.70, 95% CI = 0.55-0.88) and 23% less likely to receive annual dental check-ups (OR= 0.77, 95% CI = 0.61-0.97). Women with psychologic distress were 27% less likely to receive a clinical breast examination (OR = 0.73, 95% CI = 0.57-0.94). Psychologic distress was not significantly associated with screening for hypertension, colon cancer, high cholesterol, or prostrate cancer, mammography, or routine check-ups. CONCLUSIONS: Elderly reporting psychologic distress were less likely to adhere to some, but not all, recommended preventive care guidelines. These results suggest that adherence to recommended preventive care guidelines may be improved, indirectly, by improving recognition and treatment of emotional health problems in the elderly
