Impact of social needs case management on use of medical and behavioral health services: secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial.
This research letter describes a secondary analysis that was conducted of a randomized encouragement study that assigned Medicaid beneficiaries with high risk for acute care use to social needs case management or to be administratively observed in the control group from August 2017 through December 2018. These services connect patients to resources such as food assistance, housing, transportation, or income benefits in addition to facilitating access to health care and behavioral health services. The study group included adults 18 years or older, who are residents of Contra Costa County in California, and enrolled in full-scope Medicaid. The case management enrollees were assigned to a case manager who assessed their needs, created a patient-centered care plan, and provided ongoing support including community resource referrals, coordination with primary care providers, and collaboration on applications for public benefits. Case managers had diverse backgrounds and included public health nurses, social workers, substance misuse counselors, mental health clinicians, homeless service specialists, and community health workers. Case management was offered either in-person or by remote telephonic services for 1 year. About 40% (n = 8577) of enrolled patients used the services. There were 21,422 intervention group enrollments and 22,839 in the weighted control group. The intervention group had significantly higher rates of primary care visits compared with the control group. No differences were found between the treatment groups for specialty care visits, behavioral health visits, psychiatric emergency visits, or jail intakes.

Integrating social determinants of health into primary care clinical and informational workflow during care transitions.
Care continuity during transitions between the hospital and home requires reliable communication between providers and settings and an understanding of social determinants that influence recovery. This paper describes the coordinating transitions intervention which uses real time alerts, delivered directly to the primary care practice for complex chronically ill patients discharged from an acute care setting, to facilitate nurse care coordinator led telephone outreach.
