There has been little research on the relationship between education and health care utilization, especially for racial/ethnic minorities. This study aimed to examine the association between education and hospitalizations, investigate the mechanisms, and disaggregate the relationship by gender, race/ethnicity, and age groups. A retrospective cohort analyst was conducted using data from the 1992–2016 U.S. Health and Retirement Study.

Reducing surgical costs is paramount to the viability of hospitals. Authors conducted a retrospective analysis of electronic health record data for 7,762 operations from two health systems. Adult patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy, appendectomy, and inguinal/femoral hernia repair between November 1, 2013, and November 30, 2017, were reviewed for 3 utilization measures: intraoperative disposable supply costs, procedure time, and postoperative length of stay (LOS).

The study examined the association between mental health staffing at health centers funded by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) and patients’ receipt of mental health treatment. Data were from the 2014 HRSA-funded Health Center Patient Survey and the 2013 Uniform Data System. Colocation of any mental health staff, including psychiatrists, psychologists, and other licensed staff, was examined.

The aim of this study was to understand variation in intraoperative and postoperative utilization for common general surgery procedures. Authors used retrospective analysis of electronic health record data for 7,762 operations from two health systems.

Life chaos, the perceived inability to plan for and anticipate the future, may be a barrier to the HIV care continuum for people living with HIV who experience incarceration. Between December 2012 and June 2015, study authors interviewed 356 adult cisgender men and transgender women living with HIV in Los Angeles County Jail.

While incarcerated, people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection receive antiretroviral therapy and achieve viral suppression more consistently than after they are released. This study tested a peer navigation intervention project (Linking Inmates to Care in Los Angeles, or LINK LA) versus standard transitional case management controls in helping 356 Los Angeles County Jail adult inmates sustain viral suppression after jail release.
