Effect of enhanced primary care for people with serious mental illness on service use and screening.
This retrospective cohort study compared healthcare use and screening receipt of people with serious mental illness (SMI) newly receiving enhanced primary care to people with SMI newly receiving usual primary care. Outcome measures included outpatient visits, emergency department (ED) visits, inpatient stays and dates, and recommended screenings 18 months after the initial visit. Enhanced primary care was associated with an increase of 1.2 primary care visits in the 18 months after the initial visit and decreases of 0.33 non-psychiatric inpatient days and 3.0 non-psychiatric inpatient days. There was no significant effect on psychiatric service and ED visits. Enhanced primary care increased the probability of preventive screenings such as glucose and HIV, decreased the probability of lipid screening, and had no effect on hemoglobin A1c and colorectal cancer screening.
