Journal Article
Researchers determine whether patient-surgeon gender concordance is associated with mortality of patients after surgery in the United States. Study participants were 100% Medicare fee-for-service beneficiaries aged 65 to 99 years who had one of 14 major elective or non-elective (emergent or urgent) surgeries in 2016 to 2019.

Journal Article
The United States has 2 types of degree programs that educate physicians: allopathic and osteopathic medical schools. Authors determine whether quality and costs of care differ between hospitalized Medicare patients treated by allopathic or osteopathic physicians.

Journal Article
In medicine, clinicians treat individuals under an implicit assumption that high-risk patients would benefit most from the treatment (‘high-risk approach’). However, treating individuals with the highest estimated benefit using a novel machine-learning method (‘high-benefit approach’) may improve population health outcomes.

Journal Article
Authors assess inequities in mortality by race and sex for eight common surgical procedures (elective and nonelective) across specialties in the United States. The study consisted of 1,868,036 Black and white Medicare beneficiaries aged 65–99 years undergoing one of eight common surgeries: repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm, appendectomy, cholecystectomy, colectomy, coronary artery bypass surgery, hip replacement, knee replacement, and lung resection. The main outcome measure was 30-day mortality, defined as death during hospital admission or within 30 days of the surgical procedure.

Journal Article
Existing literature indicates that multimorbidity, mental health (MH) conditions, substance use disorders (SUDs), and social determinants of health are hallmarks of high-need, high-cost patients. Health Resources and Services Administration–funded health centers (HCs) provide care to nearly 30 million patients, but data on their patients’ complexity and utilization patterns are limited. Authors identified subgroups of HC patients based on latent concepts of complexity and utilization.

Journal Article
Adults with dementia may experience poorer quality of chronic disease management because of the difficulty in reporting symptoms and engaging in shared decision-making associated with cognitive impairment. Researchers compare the quality of chronic disease management received by adults with and without dementia.

Journal Article
Research suggests that the Affordable Care Act (ACA) Medicaid expansions improved financial protection for the poor. However, evidence is limited on whether subsidies offered through the ACA Marketplaces, the law’s other major coverage expansion, were associated with reduced financial burden.
