Opioid Overdoses Among High-Risk Medicaid Members: Healthcare Cost, Service Utilization, and Risk Factor Analysis

As payment reforms evolve under the umbrella of accountable care organizations, behavioral health community partnership models are key for collaborating with healthcare and social service providers and community resources for care management and coordination, and referrals to support services. Findings in this poster by Judy Savageau, MPH, research consultant, Research and Evaluation, inform MassHealth’s understanding of its members’ experiences regarding medical and behavioral health services and identify risk factors predictive of overdose that may help guide future policies and programs. Savageau presented this poster at the Academy Health 2020 Annual Research Meeting.
