Using the tidal model of mental health recovery to plan primary health care for women in residential substance abuse recovery
Type: Journal Article
Year: 2010
Publication Place: England
Abstract: Women currently are 30% of the substance abuse recovery population in North America and have gender specific treatment needs as they enter the difficult work of recovery. Important among women's specific needs as they enter recovery is the need for a focus on primary health care. Few models designed to guide the provision of health care for this population are available in the literature. The Tidal Model of Mental Health Recovery and Reclamation is based on the concept of nursing as "caring with" persons in the experience of distress. Given the emphasis in this model on developing a partnership between caregiver and client, it is especially appropriate for women in recovery for substance abuse. The Tidal Model, integrated with the United States Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services' CSAT model for comprehensive alcohol and other drug (AOD) abuse treatment, is used to guide planning for delivery of primary health care in a residential women's substance abuse recovery center in the Midwest. This article describes the Tidal Model, and identifies how the model can improve the delivery of primary care to women in residential substance abuse treatment. Strategies for implementation of the model are proposed. Evaluation and outcome criteria are identified.

Utility of a new procedure for diagnosing mental disorders in primary care. The PRIME-MD 1000 study
Type: Journal Article
Year: 1994
Publication Place: UNITED STATES
Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To assess the validity and utility of PRIME-MD (Primary Care Evaluation of Mental Disorders), a new rapid procedure for diagnosing mental disorders by primary care physicians. DESIGN: Survey; criterion standard. SETTING: Four primary care clinics. SUBJECTS: A total of 1000 adult patients (369 selected by convenience and 631 selected by site-specific methods to avoid sampling bias) assessed by 31 primary care physicians. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: PRIME-MD diagnoses, independent diagnoses made by mental health professionals, functional status measures (Short-Form General Health Survey), disability days, health care utilization, and treatment/referral decisions. RESULTS: Twenty-six percent of the patients had a PRIME-MD diagnosis that met full criteria for a specific disorder according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Revised Third Edition. The average time required of the primary care physician to complete the PRIME-MD evaluation was 8.4 minutes. There was good agreement between PRIME-MD diagnoses and those of independent mental health professionals (for the diagnosis of any PRIME-MD disorder, kappa = 0.71; overall accuracy rate = 88%). Patients with PRIME-MD diagnoses had lower functioning, more disability days, and higher rates of health care utilization than did patients without PRIME-MD diagnoses (for all measures, P < .005). Nearly half (48%) of 287 patients with a PRIME-MD diagnosis who were somewhat or fairly well-known to their physicians had not been recognized to have that diagnosis before the PRIME-MD evaluation. A new treatment or referral was initiated for 62% of the 125 patients with a PRIME-MD diagnosis who were not already being treated. CONCLUSION: PRIME-MD appears to be a useful tool for identifying mental disorders in primary care practice and research.

Utility of prompting physicians for brief alcohol consumption intervention
Type: Journal Article
Year: 2010
Publication Place: England
Abstract: A comprehensive prompting strategy designed to maximize the rate of Brief Intervention (BI) for "heavy drinking" was implemented from 2001 to 2003 for a randomized controlled trial of a post-BI treatment enhancement. Thirty-one internists at four outpatient practices in a county of 150,000 in a rural US state documented their BI's using an intervention checklist. The prompting procedures implemented in this study yielded documented BI for 39% of identified cases, but participation rates varied by physician and clinic and over time. The overall rate was lower than expected. Implications and recommendations for future BI research and training are offered; the paper's limitations are discussed.

Utilization and Adherence in Medical Homes: An Assessment of Rural-Urban Differences for People With Severe Mental Illness
Type: Journal Article
Year: 2018
Publication Place: United States
Abstract: BACKGROUND: The complex nature of managing care for people with severe mental illness (SMI), including major depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia, is a challenge for primary care practices, especially in rural areas. The team-based emphasis of medical homes may act as an important facilitator to help reduce observed rural-urban differences in care. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to examine whether enrollment in medical homes improved care in rural versus urban settings for people with SMI. RESEARCH DESIGN: Secondary data analysis of North Carolina Medicaid claims from 2004-2007, using propensity score weights and generalized estimating equations to assess differences between urban, nonmetropolitan urban and rural areas. SUBJECTS: Medicaid-enrolled adults with diagnoses of major depressive disorder, bipolar disorder or schizophrenia. Medicare/Medicaid dual eligibles were excluded. MEASURES: We examined utilization measures of primary care use, specialty mental health use, inpatient hospitalizations, and emergency department use and medication adherence. RESULTS: Rural medical home enrollees generally had higher primary care use and medication adherence than rural nonmedical home enrollees. Rural medical home enrollees had fewer primary care visits than urban medical home enrollees, but both groups were similar on the other outcome measures. These findings varied somewhat by SMI diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS: Findings indicate that enrollment in medical homes among rural Medicaid beneficiaries holds the promise of reducing rural-urban differences in care. Both urban and rural medical homes may benefit from targeted resources to help close the remaining gaps and to improve the success of the medical home model in addressing the health care needs of people with SMI.

Utilization and cost impact of integrating substance abuse treatment and primary care
Type: Journal Article
Year: 2003
Publication Place: United States
Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To examine the impact of integrating medical and substance abuse treatment on health care utilization and cost. RESEARCH DESIGN: Randomized clinical trial assigning patients to one of two treatment modalities: an Integrated Care model where primary health care is provided along with substance abuse treatment within the unit and an Independent Care model where medical care is provided in the HMO's primary care clinics independently from substance abuse treatment. SUBJECTS: Adult patients entering treatment at the outpatient Chemical Dependency Recovery Program in Kaiser Sacramento. MEASURES: Medical utilization and cost for 12 months pretreatment and 12 months after treatment entry. RESULTS: For the full, randomized cohort, there were no statistically significant differences between the two treatment groups over time. However, among the subset of patients with substance abuse related medical conditions (SAMC), Integrated Care patients had significant decreases in hospitalization rates (P = 0.04), inpatient days (P = 0.05) and ER use (P = 0.02). Total medical costs per member-month declined from 431.12 US dollars to 200.03 US dollars (P = 0.02). Among SAMC Independent Care patients, there was a downward trend in inpatient days (P = 0.08) and ER costs (P = 0.05) but no statistically significant decrease in total medical cost. CONCLUSIONS: (Non)findings for the full sample suggest that integrating substance abuse treatment with primary care, may not be necessary or appropriate for all patients. However, it may be beneficial to refer patients with substance abuse related medical conditions to a provider also trained in addiction medicine. There appear to be large cost impacts of providing integrated care for such patients.

Utilization and cost of behavioral health services: Employee characteristics and workplace health promotion
Type: Journal Article
Year: 2002
Publication Place: United States
Abstract: The study sought to (1) model demographic and employment-related influences on behavioral health care utilization and cost; (2) model behavioral health care utilization and cost influences on general health care cost, job performance, and earnings; and (3) assess workplace-based health promotion's impact on these factors. Behavioral health care utilization was more common in employees who were female, over age 30, with below-median earnings, or with above-median general (non-behavioral) health care costs. Among employees utilizing behavioral health care, related costs were higher for employees with below-median earnings. Employees utilizing behavioral health care had higher general health care costs and received lower performance ratings than other employees. Health promotion participants were compared with a nonparticipant random sample matched on gender, age, and pre-intervention behavioral health care utilization. Among employees without pre-intervention behavioral health care, participants and nonparticipants did not differ in post-intervention utilization. Among employees utilizing behavioral health care adjusting for pre-intervention costs, participants had higher short-term post-intervention behavioral health care costs than nonparticipants.
