Coverage of our peer-reviewed research in the healthcare and mainstream press.
An article on PatientEngagementHIT.com reported on the findings of a study published in the May 2017 issue of The American Journal of Managed Care® (AJMC®). In “The Association of Mental Health Program Characteristics and Patient Satisfaction,” researchers explored whether veterans’ satisfaction with care was linked with modifiable measures of mental health program reach, service access, program intensity, and treatment continuity. They found positive associations for some of the variables, which could lead to the use of administrative data as a patient satisfaction measure, according to the PatientEngagementHIT.com story.
