Awaiting insurance coverage: Medicaid enrollment and post-acute care use after traumatic injury.

J Trauma Acute Care Surg

January 2025

From the Section of Trauma and Acute Care Surgery, Department of Surgery (D.N.H., J.S.H.), University of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois; Perelman School of Medicine (E.C.E., A.T.C., O.I.R., A.U.M., M.K.D., N.D.M., M.J.S., E.J.K.), Division of Trauma, Surgical Critical Care and Emergency Surgery (K.M.C., N.D.M., M.J.S., E.J.K.), University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; and Department of Surgery (L.M.K.), Stanford University, Stanford, California.

Background: Lack of insurance after traumatic injury is associated with decreased use of postacute care and poor outcomes. Insurance linkage programs enroll eligible patients in Medicaid at the time of an unplanned admission. We hypothesized that Medicaid enrollment would be associated with increased use of postacute care, but also with prolonged hospital length of stay (LOS) while awaiting insurance authorization.

Background: For unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIAs), conservative management is often possible. However, when direct treatment is warranted, endovascular treatments (EVTs) provide an effective minimally invasive approach. These procedures still necessitate careful patient monitoring, frequently in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).
