Healthcare utilization after a children's health insurance program expansion in Oregon.
This study used electornic health record data from 154 Oregon community health centers to evaluate children's healthcare utilization after the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) expansion. The authors found that utilization among the newly-insured remained higher than the uninsured group. This finding confirms that Children's Health Insurance Program expansions are associated with increased utilization of essential pediatric primary and preventive care.

Utilization of community health centers in Medicaid expansion and nonexpansion states, 2013-2014.
Using electronic health record data, the researchers examined longitudinal changes in community health center (CHC) visit rates from 2013 through 2014 in Medicaid expansion versus nonexpansion states. Rates increased in expansion state CHCs for new patient, preventive, and limited-service visits (14 percent, 41percent, and 23 percent, respectively), whereas these rates remained unchanged in nonexpansion states.
