Medicaid Spending in Coordination-Only Dual-Eligible Special Needs Plans.
JAMA Netw Open
January 2025
Department of Population Health Sciences, Duke University School of Medicine, Durham, North Carolina.
Importance: More than 4 million Medicare beneficiaries have enrolled in dual-eligible Special Needs Plans (D-SNPs), and coordination-only D-SNPs are common. Little is known about the impact of coordination-only D-SNPs on Medicaid-covered services and spending, including long-term services and supports, which are financed primarily by Medicaid.
Objective: To evaluate changes in Medicaid fee-for-service (FFS) spending before and after new enrollment in coordination-only D-SNPs vs new enrollment in non-D-SNP Medicare Advantage (MA) plans among community-living beneficiaries enrolled in both Medicare and North Carolina Medicaid.

A Lack of Joint Line Tenderness Is Consistent With a Healed Meniscus, But Positive Clinical Examination Findings and MRI Scans Are Inconsistent in Identifying Failure After Meniscal Repair: A Systematic Review and Subgroup Meta-analysis.
Am J Sports Med
January 2025
Twin Cities Orthopedics, Edina, Minnesota, USA.
Background: The number of meniscal repairs being completed each year is increasing; however, the optimal, cost-effective postoperative assessment to determine the success or failure of a meniscal repair is not well known.
Purpose/hypothesis: The purpose of this systematic review was to identify the clinical examination testing that correlates with objective magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or second-look arthroscopy (SLA) findings to determine an optimal clinical workup for assessing postoperative meniscal repair healing. It was hypothesized that specific clinical tests would correlate with meniscal repairs that did not heal.
Povidone-Iodine Versus Saline Irrigation on Reduction of Surgical Site Infections in Total Hip and Knee Arthroplasty: A Retrospective, Propensity-Matched Cohort.

Surgical site infection (SSI) after total hip and knee arthroplasty (THA/TKA) is a major complication leading to morbidity and mortality. Perioperative irrigation, frequently with antiseptic compounds including povidone-iodine (PI), is the standard of care in reducing SSI. Evidence supporting the value of PI versus nonantiseptic substances varies.
