A randomized trial of population-based clinical decision support to manage health and resource use for Medicaid beneficiaries.
This study tested the impact of 3 clinical decision support modalities (emails to care managers, printed reports to clinic administrators, and letters to patients) on the use and cost of medical services for Medicaid patients. It found that some modalities can significantly reduce emergency department use and medical costs, while other interventions may have had detrimental consequences.
