State-level and system-level opioid prescribing policies: The impact on provider practices and overdose deaths, a systematic review

Type: Journal Article

Authors: F. L. Beaudoin, G. N. Banerjee, M. J. Mello

Year: 2016

Publication Place: United States

Abstract: OBJECTIVE: In response to persistent public health concerns regarding prescription opioids, many states and healthcare systems have implemented legislation and policies intended to regulate or guide opioid prescribing. The overall impact of these policies is still uncertain. The aim of this systematic review was to examine the existing evidence of provider-level and patient-level outcomes preimplementation and postimplementation of policies and legislation constructed to impact provider prescribing practices around opioid analgesics. DESIGN: A systematic search of MEDLINE, EMBASE, the Web of Science, and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews was conducted to identify studies evaluating the impact of opioid prescribing policies on provider-level and patient-level outcomes. The systematic review was conducted in accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. RESULTS: Eleven studies were included in the review. A meta-analysis was not possible due to between-study heterogeneity. Six of the studies assessed state-level policies, and five were at the level of the healthcare system or hospital. Studies showed temporal associations between policy implementation and reductions in opioid prescribing, as well as opioid-related overdoses. Results were mixed regarding the impact of policies on misuse. The majority of the studies were judged to be of low quality based on the GRADE criteria. CONCLUSIONS: There is low to moderate quality evidence suggesting that the presence of opioid prescribing policy will reduce the amount and strength of opioid prescribed. The presence of these policies may impact the number of overdoses, but there is no clear evidence to suggest that it reduces opioid misuse.

Structural barriers in the context of opiate substitution treatment in Germany--A survey among physicians in primary care

Type: Journal Article

Authors: B. Schulte, C. S. Schmidt, O. Kuhnigk, I. Schafer, B. Fischer, H. Wedemeyer, J. Reimer

Year: 2013

Publication Place: England

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Opiate substitution treatment (OST) is the most widely used treatment for opioid dependence in Germany with substantial long-term benefits for the patient and for society. Due to lessened restrictive admission criteria, the number of registered OST patients in Germany has increased continuously in the recent years, whereas the number of physicians providing OST has remained constant. Previous data already indicated a deteriorating situation in the availability or quality of OST delivered and that structural barriers impede physicians in actively providing OST. The present survey among a sample of primary care physicians in Germany aimed to identify and assess potential structural barriers for the provision of health care in the context of OST. METHODS: An anonymous written questionnaire was sent out to a sample of 2,332 physicians across Germany providing OST. Physicians contacted were identified through databases of the Federal State Chambers of Physicians and/or of the Federal Associations of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians. Data obtained were analysed descriptively. RESULTS: The response rate was 25.5% and the majority of 596 physicians sampled viewed substantial problems in terms of the regulatory framework of OST care in the German context. Furthermore, financial remuneration, insufficient qualification, as well as inadequate interdisciplinary cooperation in the treatment of comorbidities of opiate substituted patients were regarded as problematic. The number of physicians providing OST in Germany is expected to substantially decrease in the near future. CONCLUSION: Despite less restrictive admission criteria for OST in Germany, the legal regulation framework for OST is still a limiting factor through raising concerns on the provider and consumer side to be unable to adhere to the strict rules. To avoid future shortages in the provision of OST care on the system level in Germany, revisions to the legal framework seem to be necessary. In regards to adequate care for drug use-related infectious diseases and psychiatric comorbidities commonly found in opiate substituted patients, efforts are required to improve professional qualifications of physicians providing OST as well as respective interdisciplinary collaboration.

Study protocol: a mixed-methods study of the implementation of doula care to address racial health equity in six state Medicaid programs

Type: Journal Article

Authors: M. Jarlenski, S. Kennedy, A. Johnson, C. Hale, Z. D'Angelo, A. Nedhari, G. Coffee, M. Chappell-McPhail, K. Green, D. D. Méndez, L. G. Goetschius, S. Gareau, K. Ashford, A. J. Barnes, K. A. Ahrens, K. Zivin, E. Mosley, L. Tang

Year: 2024

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Racial inequities in severe maternal morbidity (SMM) and mortality constitute a public health crisis in the United States. Doula care, defined as care from birth workers who provide culturally appropriate, non-clinical support during pregnancy and postpartum, has been proposed as an intervention to help disrupt obstetric racism as a driver of adverse pregnancy outcomes in Black and other birthing persons of colour. Many state Medicaid programs are implementing doula programs to address the continued increase in SMM and mortality. Medicaid programs are poised to play a major role in addressing the needs of these populations with the goal of closing the racial gaps in SMM and mortality. This study will investigate the most effective ways that Medicaid programs can implement doula care to improve racial health equity. METHODS: We describe the protocol for a mixed-methods study to understand how variation in implementation of doula programs in Medicaid may affect racial equity in pregnancy and postpartum health. Primary study outcomes include SMM, person-reported measures of respectful obstetric care, and receipt of evidence-based care for chronic conditions that are the primary causes of postpartum mortality (cardiovascular, mental health, and substance use conditions). Our research team includes doulas, university-based investigators, and Medicaid participants from six sites (Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, Pennsylvania, South Carolina and Virginia) in the Medicaid Outcomes Distributed Research Network (MODRN). Study data will include policy analysis of doula program implementation, longitudinal data from a cohort of doulas, cross-sectional data from Medicaid beneficiaries, and Medicaid healthcare administrative data. Qualitative analysis will examine doula and beneficiary experiences with healthcare systems and Medicaid policies. Quantitative analyses (stratified by race groups) will use matching techniques to estimate the impact of using doula care on postpartum health outcomes, and will use time-series analyses to estimate the average treatment effect of doula programs on population postpartum health outcomes. DISCUSSION: Findings will facilitate learning opportunities among Medicaid programs, doulas and Medicaid beneficiaries. Ultimately, we seek to understand the implementation and integration of doula care programs into Medicaid and how these processes may affect racial health equity. Study registration The study is registered with the Open Science Foundation ( https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/NXZUF ).
