Differences between rural and urban residence in the detection and treatment of perinatal mood and anxiety disorders.

Background: Perinatal mood and anxiety disorders are common, serious complications of pregnancy. Disparities exist by race and income in the prevalence and treatment of these conditions, and overall treatment rates remain low. Outside of pregnancy, a small body of literature suggests that rural residency may contribute to higher rates of depression for those who identify as women.

Impact of the Dobbs decision on abortion services from a large tertiary center in Oregon.

Objectives: Evaluate the impact of the Dobbs vs Jackson decision on abortion care at an academic center in Oregon, a state with no legal restrictions on abortion.

Results: Monthly average abortions increased from 57.

Diagnosis of Perinatal Mental Health Conditions Following Medicaid Expansion to Include Low-Income Immigrants.

Importance: For some low-income people, access to care during pregnancy is not guaranteed through Medicaid, based on their immigration status. While states have the option to extend Emergency Medicaid coverage for prenatal and postpartum care, many states have not expanded coverage.

Objective: To determine whether receipt of first prenatal care services and subsequently receipt of postpartum care through extensions of Emergency Medicaid coverage were associated with increases in diagnosis and treatment of perinatal mental health conditions.

Opioid Overdose Mortality Trends in Wisconsin, 2004-2019.

Background: Opioid-related mortality in Wisconsin by race differs from national trends: Black Wisconsinites are nearly twice as likely as Whites to die by opioid overdose. These trends warrant further study by other demographic factors on the state level.

Methods: We characterize trends in mortality due to opioid overdose in Wisconsin using CDC WONDER data for 2004-2019 by race, age, and sex.

Adapting Patient Experience Data Collection Processes for Lower Literacy Patient Populations Using Tablets at the Point of Care.

Background: Patient experience surveys are widely used to capture the patient-reported quality of care and are increasingly being used for formal reporting purposes. There is evidence that certain patient subgroups are less likely to respond to traditional CAHPS surveys. As patient-facing technologies become more common, it is important to examine whether tablet-based patient experience surveys have the potential to promote responses from more diverse populations.
