Tuesday, February 28, 2023 | The Latest Research, Commentary, And News From Health Affairs
Dear John,

We recently launched a new Forefront series, "Provider Prices in the Commercial Sector," featuring analysis and discussion of health care provider prices in the private-sector markets.

The series, produced with the support of Arnold Ventures, will run through December 31, 2023; submissions are accepted on a rolling basis.
Mental Health ED Visits
In this month's issue, K. John McConnell and colleagues use newly available national Medicaid claims data from 2018 to examine emergency department (ED) visits for mental health conditions among Medicaid beneficiaries.

They find substantial state-to-state variation "both in ED visits for mental health conditions and in outpatient mental health visits, with these measures positively correlated."

Visit rates in the region with the highest rates are eight times higher than those in the region with the lowest rates, McConnell and colleagues report.

The authors also find little correlation between ED visits for anxiety and those for schizophrenia or between ED visits for depression and those for suicide, leading them to suggest that a "one-size-fits-all" approach to mental health may be less effective than programs tailored to the local population’s needs.
