Utilization and cost impact of integrating substance abuse treatment and primary care.
TLDR
The findings for the full sample suggest that integrating substance abuse treatment with primary care, may not be necessary or appropriate for all patients, but it may be beneficial to refer patients with substance abuse related medical conditions to a provider also trained in addiction medicine.Abstract:
Objective. To examine the impact of integrating medical and substance abuse treatment on health care utilization and cost.Research Design. Randomized clinical trial assigning patients to one of two treatment modalities: an Integrated Care model where primary health care is provided along with substaread more

New systems of care for substance use disorders: treatment, finance, and technology under health care reform.
David Pating,Michael M. Miller,Michael M. Miller,Eric Goplerud,Judith Martin,Douglas M. Ziedonis +5 more
TL;DR: As addiction care acquires more of the “look and feel” of mainstream medicine, it is important to be mindful of preexisting trends in health care delivery overall that are reflected in recent health reform legislation.
Coordination of care within primary health care and with other sectors: A systematic review
Gawaine Powell Davies,Mark Harris,David Perkins,Martin Roland,Anna Williams,Karen Larsen,Julie McDonald +6 more
TL;DR: As the population ages and the rate of chronic disease increases, more people are receiving complex regimes of care, from a variety of health care providers, and the need to coordinate care is one of the drivers for health service integration.

Do mechanisms that link addiction treatment patients to primary care influence subsequent utilization of emergency and hospital care
TL;DR: Findings suggest that for some treatment modalities, stronger primary care linkage mechanisms decrease subsequent utilization of expensive ED and hospital services.

Integrated care: a comprehensive bibliometric analysis and literature review
TL;DR: The bibliometric analysis and identification of publication hotspots provides researchers and practitioners with core target journals, as well as an overview of the field for further research in integrated care.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epidemiologic trends and costs of fragmentation.
TL;DR: This article proposes that these health system deficiencies will persist unless behavioral health services become an integral part of medical care (ie, integrated) and creates a win-win situation for virtually all parties involved.

Generalized Linear Models
Peter McCullagh,John A. Nelder +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a generalization of the analysis of variance is given for these models using log- likelihoods, illustrated by examples relating to four distributions; the Normal, Binomial (probit analysis, etc.), Poisson (contingency tables), and gamma (variance components).

Longitudinal data analysis using generalized linear models
Kung Yee Liang,Scott L. Zeger +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, an extension of generalized linear models to the analysis of longitudinal data is proposed, which gives consistent estimates of the regression parameters and of their variance under mild assumptions about the time dependence.

Generalized Linear Models
TL;DR: This is the rst book on generalized linear models written by authors not mostly associated with the biological sciences, and it is thoroughly enjoyable to read.
