Coverage of our peer-reviewed research and news reporting in the health care and mainstream press.
A piece by DoctorsLounge referenced a study published in The American Journal of Managed Care® (AJMC®). The study, “Out-of-Pocket Spending for Health Care After COVID-19 Hospitalization,” found that 1 in 10 patients who survive COVID-19 hospitalization have out-of-pocket expenses exceeding $2000 within 18 days of discharge.
A study published by AJMC®’s sister journal Evidence-Based Oncology® was highlighted in an article by HealthLeaders Media. The study, “Considerations to Increase Rates of Breast Cancer Screening Across Populations,” presented data that showed breast cancer screening rates recovered more slowly among some racial/ethnic groups following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.
InsuranceNewsNet featured a study published in the February issue of AJMC®, titled, “Empiric Segmentation of High-risk Patients: A Structured Literature Review.” The study indicated that data-driven segmentation of high-risk patient populations may inform health system interventions, but results are dependent on the data sources and methods applied.
