Results • Screened approximately 2,000 patients/year (20% of total patients per year) • Providing treatment to about 15%; 50% of these are Medicaid patients • 30% of Medicaid patients provided 70% of utilization (“frequent flyers”) • 64% showed significant improvement (HADS) • Overall medical utilization by Medicaid patients decreased by 13% • For “frequent flyer” Medicaid patients, decreased medical utilization by 33%*
“Frequent flyers” had significantly less (p<.01) medical utilization after BHC sessions for both OPT and ER visits
Low utilizers had more visits after BHC contact (not significant)
