How couples with dementia experience healthcare, lifestyle, and everyday decision-making
Type: Journal Article
Authors: Craig Sinclair, Kate Gersbach, Michelle Hogan, Romola S. Bucks, Kirsten A. Auret, Josephine M. Clayton, Meera Agar, Sue Kurrle
Year: 2018
Publication Place: England
Abstract:

ABSTRACTObjectives:Recent research has demonstrated the challenges to self-identity associated with dementia, and the importance of maintaining involvement in decision-making while adjusting to changes in role and lifestyle. This study aimed to understand the lived experiences of couples living with dementia, with respect to healthcare, lifestyle, and "everyday" decision-making. DESIGN: Semi-structured qualitative interviews using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis as the methodological approach. SETTING: Community and residential care settings in Australia. PARTICIPANTS: Twenty eight participants who self-identified as being in a close and continuing relationship (N = 13 people with dementia, N = 15 spouse partners). Nine couples were interviewed together. RESULTS: Participants described a spectrum of decision-making approaches (independent, joint, supported, and substituted), with these approaches often intertwining in everyday life. Couples' approaches to decision-making were influenced by "decisional," "individual," "relational," and "external" factors. The overarching themes of "knowing and being known," "maintaining and re-defining couplehood" and "relational decision-making," are used to interpret these experiences. The spousal relationship provided an important context for decision-making, with couples expressing a history and ongoing preference for joint decision-making, as an integral part of their experience of couplehood. However, the progressive impairments associated with dementia presented challenges to maintaining joint decision-making and mutuality in the relationship. CONCLUSIONS: This study illustrates relational perspectives on decision-making in couples with dementia. Post-diagnostic support, education resources, proactive dyadic interventions, and assistance for spouse care partners may facilitate more productive attempts at joint decision-making by couples living with dementia.

How COVID-19 has impacted integrated care practice: Lessons from the frontlines
Type: Journal Article
Authors: Z. Cooper, L. S. Zerden
Year: 2021
Abstract:

Primary care systems are a mainstay for how many Americans seek health and behavioral health care. It is estimated that almost a quarter of behavioral health conditions are diagnosed and/or treated in primary care. Many clinics treat the whole person through integrated models of care such as the Primary Care Behavioral Health (PCBH) model. COVID-19 has disrupted integrated care delivery and traditional PCBH workflows requiring swift adaptations. This paper synthesizes how COVID-19 has impacted clinical services at one federally qualified health center and describes how care has continued despite the challenges experienced by frontline behavioral health providers.

How do general practitioners contribute to preventing long-term work disability of their patients suffering from depressive disorders? A qualitative study
Type: Journal Article
Authors: C. Sylvain, M. J. Durand, P. Maillette, L. Lamothe
Year: 2016
Publication Place: England
Abstract: BACKGROUND: Depression is a major cause of work absenteeism that general practitioners (GPs) face directly since they are responsible for sickness certification and for supervising the return to work (RTW). These activities give GPs a key role in preventing long-term work disability, yet their practices in this regard remain poorly documented. The objectives of this study were therefore to describe GPs' practices with people experiencing work disability due to depressive disorders and explore how GPs' work context may impact on their practices. METHODS: We conducted semi-structured individual interviews with 13 GPs and six mental healthcare professionals in two sub-regions of Quebec. The sub-regions differed in terms of availability of specialized resources offering public mental health services. Data were anonymized and transcribed verbatim. Thematic analysis was performed to identify patterns in the GPs' practices and highlight impacting factors in their work context. RESULTS: Our results identified a set of practices common to all the GPs and other practices that differentiated them. Two profiles were defined on the basis of the various practices documented. The first is characterized by the integration of the RTW goal into the treatment goal right from sickness certification and by interventions that include the workplace, albeit indirectly. The second is characterized by a lack of early RTW-oriented action and by interventions that include little workplace involvement. Regardless of the practice profile, actions intended to improve collaboration with key stakeholders remain the exception. However, two characteristics of the work context appear to have an impact: the availability of a dedicated mental health nurse and the regular provision of clinical information by psychotherapists. These conditions are rarely present but tend to make a significant difference for the GPs. CONCLUSIONS: Our results highlight the significant role of GPs in the prevention of long-term work disability and their need for support through the organization of mental health services at the primary care level.

How do general practitioners experience providing care for their psychotic patients?
Type: Journal Article
Authors: M. J. Oud, J. Schuling, C. J. Slooff, Meyboom- de Jong
Year: 2007
Publication Place: England
Abstract: BACKGROUND: In primary care, GPs usually provide care for patients with chronic diseases according to professional guidelines. However, such guidelines are not available in the Netherlands for patients with recurring psychoses. It seems that the specific difficulties that GPs experience in providing care for these patients hinder the development and implementation of such guidelines. This study aims to explore the chances and problems GPs meet when providing care for patients susceptible for recurring psychoses, including schizophrenia and related disorders, bipolar disorder, and psychotic depression. METHODS: A qualitative study of focus group discussions with practising GPs in both town and rural areas. Transcripts from three focus groups with 19 GPs were analysed with the computer program 'Kwalitan'. Theoretical saturation was achieved after these three groups. RESULTS: Analysis showed that eight categories of factors influenced the GPs' care for psychotic patients: patient presentation (acute vs. chronic phase), emotional impact, expertise, professional attitude, patient related factors, patient's family, practice organization, and collaboration with psychiatric specialists. CONCLUSION: Current primary care for psychotic patients depends very much on personal characteristics of the GP and the quality of local collaboration with the Mental Health Service. A quantitative study among GPs using a questionnaire based on the eight categories mentioned above would determine the extent of the problems and limitations experienced with this type of care. From the results of this quantitative study, new realistic guidelines could be developed to improve the quality of care for psychotic patients.

How Do Innovative Primary Care Practices Achieve the Quadruple Aim?
Type: Journal Article
Authors: E. H. Wagner, L. LeRoy, J. Schaefer, M. Bailit, K. Coleman, C. Zhan, D. Meyers
Year: 2018
Publication Place: United States
Abstract: The Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) now defines excellent primary care. Recent literature has begun to elucidate the components of PCMHs that improve care and reduce costs, but there is little empiric evidence that helps practices, payers, or policy makers understand how high-performing practices have improved outcomes. We report the findings from 38 such practices that fill this gap. We describe how they execute 8 functions that collectively meet patient needs. They include managing populations, providing self-management support coaching, providing integrated behavioral health care, and managing referrals. The functions provide a more actionable perspective on the work of primary care.

How does the integration of collaborative care elements in a gatekeeping system affect the costs for mental health care in Germany?
Type: Journal Article
Authors: A. Engels, K. C. Reber, J. L. Magaard, M. Harter, S. Hawighorst-Knapstein, A. Chaudhuri, C. Brettschneider, H. H. Konig
Year: 2020
Publication Place: Germany
Abstract:

Mental disorders are widespread, debilitating and associated with high costs. In Germany, usual care (UC) for mental disorders is afflicted by poor coordination between providers and long waiting times. Recently, the primary alternative to UC-the gatekeeping-based general practitioners (GP) program-was extended by the collaborative Psychiatry-Neurology-Psychotherapy (PNP) program, which is a selective contract designed to improve mental health care and the allocation of resources. Here, we assess the effects of the GP program and the PNP program on costs for mental health care. We analyzed claims data from 2014 to 2016 of 55,472 adults with a disorder addressed by PNP to compare costs and sick leave days between PNP, the GP program and UC. The individuals were grouped and balanced via entropy balancing to adjust for potentially confounding covariates. We employed a negative binomial model to compare sick leave days and two-part models to compare sick pay, outpatient, inpatient and medication costs over a 12-month period. The PNP program significantly reduced sick pay by 164€, compared to UC, and by 177€, compared to the GP program. Consistently, sick leave days were lower in PNP. We found lower inpatient costs in PNP than in UC (-194€) and in the GP program (-177€), but no reduction in those shares of inpatient costs that accrued in psychiatric or neurological departments. Our results suggest that integrating collaborative care elements in a gatekeeping system can favourably impact costs. In contrast, we found no evidence that the widely implemented GP program reduces costs for mental health care.

How much shared decision making occurs in usual primary care of depression?
Type: Journal Article
Authors: L. I. Solberg, A. L. Crain, L. Rubenstein, J. Unutzer, R. R. Whitebird, A. Beck
Year: 2014
Publication Place: United States
Abstract: BACKGROUND: Shared decision making (SDM) is an important component of patient-centered care, but there is little information about its use in the primary care of depression, so we sought to study its frequency in usual care as reported by patients. METHODS: Telephone interview of 1168 depressed patients taking antidepressants in 88 Minnesota primary care clinics who were identified from pharmacy claims data soon after a prescription for an antidepressant. We measured depression severity with the 9-item Patient Health Questionnaire and used a composite measure of SDM that reflected patient involvement in treatment decisions. RESULTS: These patients reported an average score for SDM of 50.7 (standard deviation, 32.8) on a scale of 0 to 100, where higher scores equate with greater SDM. In univariate analyses, the largest differences among scores were for age (scores of 58, 53, 45, and 33 for those aged 18-34, 35-49, 50-64, and >64 years, respectively; P < .0001); duration of treatment (a score of 56.6 on treatment <6 weeks vs 45.5 if longer; P < .001); and other treatments in the past 6 months (60.5 if yes vs. 46.0 if no; P = .001). SDM was not associated with any clinic characteristics, but it was correlated with patient-reported quality of care (r = 0.48; P < .001). Multivariate analyses confirmed some of these findings while showing a more complex set of relationships. CONCLUSIONS: Older patients with depression and those who have been in treatment longer report much less SDM in their care. Improving SDM, especially for these groups, may be an important target for improving patient experience and perceived quality.

How parents' negative experiences at immunization visits affect child immunization status in a community in New York City
Type: Journal Article
Authors: M. S. Stockwell, M. Irigoyen, R. A. Martinez, S. Findley
Year: 2011
Publication Place: United States
Abstract: OBJECTIVE: Little is known about how families' experiences with immunization visits within the medical home may affect children's immunization status. We assessed the association between families' negative immunization experiences within the medical home and underimmunization. METHODS: We surveyed parents (n = 392) of children aged 2-36 months about immunization experiences at community health centers, hospital-based clinics, private practices, and community-based organizations in New York City. We used Chi-square tests and odds ratios (ORs) to assess the relationship between medical home elements and parental immunization experience ratings. We used multivariable analysis to determine the association between negative experiences during immunization visits and underimmunization, controlling for insurance, maternal education, and receipt of benefits from the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children. RESULTS: The majority of children were of Latino race/ethnicity and had Medicaid and a medical home. One-sixth (16.9%) of families reported a previous negative immunization experience, primarily related to the child's reaction, waiting time, and attitudes of medical and office staff. Parents' negative immunization experiences were associated with the absence of four components of the medical home: continuity of care, family-centered care, compassionate care, and comprehensive care. In addition, children in families who reported a negative experience were more likely to have been underimmunized (adjusted OR = 2.00; 95% confidence interval 1.12, 3.58). CONCLUSIONS: In a community in New York City, underimmunization of young children was associated with negative immunization experiences. Strategies to improve family experiences with immunization visits within the medical home (particularly around support for the family), medical and ancillary staff attitudes, and reduced waiting time may lead to improved immunization delivery.

How patients view primary care: Differences by minority status after psychiatric emergency
Type: Journal Article
Authors: J. S. Roman, K. S. Griswold, S. J. Smith, T. J. Servoss
Year: 2008
Publication Place: United States
Abstract: BACKGROUND: Patients' race or ethnic background may affect their ability to access health care due to their socioeconomic status, hereditary predispositions to illnesses, or discrimination either perceived or actual by those providing health care. For patients with mental health disorders, additional barriers are created due to poor experiences with the health care system. METHODS: This was a mixed methods randomized control study examining the effectiveness of care managers linking patients to primary care after psychiatric crisis. The aim reported in this paper was to analyze differences by minority status in patients' quantitative and qualitative responses before and after facilitation to primary care (N=85). Patients responded to a "patient enablement" and primary care index assessing their feelings of empowerment after a primary care visit; and to qualitative questions about their experiences and perceptions of care. FINDINGS: Following a primary care visit, responses by minority and non-minority individuals did not differ significantly on either the patient enablement or primary care index score. On qualitative inquiry, both non-minorities and minorities reported positive and negative views of their health, with corresponding positive and negative health experiences. DISCUSSION: In sum, there were no differences in patient enablement between the minority and non-minority subgroups over the course of the study, nor were there any changes in patient's perception of their relationship with healthcare providers. However, this cohort found primary care services less satisfactory than a general population without mental illness. Patients with psychiatric disorders experience stigmatization in their attempts to access health care. This stigma may have a greater impact than race and ethnicity, thereby leading to a similarity in perception of health care between minorities and non-minorities with mental illness.

How Physician Workforce Shortages Are Hampering the Response to the Opioid Crisis
Type: Journal Article
Authors: J. McNeely, D. Schatz, M. Olfson, N. Appleton, A. R. Williams
Year: 2022
Abstract:

The United States is experiencing an unprecedented opioid crisis, with a record of about 93,000 opioid-involved overdose deaths in 2020, which requires rapid and substantial scaling up of access to effective treatment for opioid use disorder. Only 18% of individuals with opioid use disorder receive evidence-based treatment, and strategies to increase access are hindered by a lack of treatment providers. Using a case study from the largest municipal hospital system in the United States, the authors describe the effects of a workforce shortage on health system responses to the opioid crisis. This national problem demands a multipronged approach, including federal programs to grow and diversify the pipeline of addiction providers, medical education initiatives, and enhanced training and mentorship to increase the capacity of allied clinicians to treat patients who have an opioid use disorder. Workforce development should be combined with structural reforms for integrating addiction treatment into mainstream medical care and with new treatment models, including telehealth, which can lower patient barriers to accessing treatment.
