An article by Health referenced a June 2019 contributor piece published on AJMC.com, the website of The American Journal of Managed Care® (AJMC®). The contributor article, titled “The Deadly Costs of Insulin,” noted the significant price increases of insulin treatment, from $14 for 1 vial in 2001 to $275 in 2019.
A piece by Patheos spotlighted an article published on AJMC.com, titled “Mental Health Issues On the Rise Among Adolescents, Young Adults.” The article details rates of mood disorders and suicide-related outcomes that have increased significantly among adolescents and young adults, with a possible link to the rise of social media.
An article by Herald-Tribune cited a study published in the January 2021 issue of AJMC® titled “Differences in the Use of Telephone and Video Telemedicine Visits During the COVID-19 Pandemic.” The study found lower use of video vs telephone visits among older, Black, Hispanic, and Spanish-speaking patients amid the COVID-19 pandemic, driven largely by clinician and practice factors.
