Opportunities to Address Female Veterans' Unique Healthcare Needs
On this episode of Managed Care Cast, we speak with the lead author of a recent study who explored gender differences in veterans’ healthcare after leaving the military.
Efforts to ensure that veterans have timely access to healthcare include community partnerships and the Veterans Choice Program, but new research suggests that women veterans may be receiving less care, particularly those who report unstable housing or mental/behavioral health issues.
On this episode of Managed Care Cast, we speak with Laurel A. Copeland, PhD, about the paper “Gender Differences in Newly Separated Veterans’ Use of Healthcare.” The study can be found in the March issue of The American Journal of Managed Care®.
