Despite the availability of evidence-based therapeutics and supports, informal primary care partners of older adults are using cannabis as an unproven, potentially harmful, alternative for reducing physical burden and psychological distress. Using the 2019 CHIS, authors identified 2,278 respondents over 50 years old who indicated providing care to someone also over 50 in 2024

Journal Article
Researchers identify collaboration strategies used to integrate health, behavioral health, and social services for Medicaid members in California's Medi-Cal Whole Person Care Pilot program (WPC). Data were collected as part of the statewide evaluation of WPC. Authors analyzed qualitative data to examine strategies used by pilots to integrate care, network data to identify pilots that improved cross-sector collaboration (i.e., strengthened density or multiplexity of cross-sector ties) following WPC implementation, and comparative case analysis to identify strategies that differentiated pilots that improved collaboration from those that did not.

Affordable health care is essential for everyone to be healthy and thrive. Having health insurance coverage helps lower out-of-pocket expenses and ensures access to preventive care, which in turn supports workforce participation and education. Using 2023 California Health Interview Survey (CHIS) data, the California Budget & Policy Center produced fact sheets covering five insurance topics.

American Indian, Alaska Native, and Indigenous (AI/AN/In) communities have been greatly undercounted, uncounted, and miscounted/miscategorized in data collection efforts across state, county, and federal agencies — including in the census — presenting stark challenges to accurately highlighting inequities impacting AI/AN/In children. This study uses 2019, 2020 and 2021 California Health Interview Survey (CHIS) data.
