Medicaid value-based payments and health care use for patients with mental illness.
This retrospective cohort study鈥檚 objective was to investigate if New York State's Medicaid value-based payment reform was associated with improved utilization patterns for patients with mental illness (major depression disorder, bipolar disorder, and/or schizophrenia). The cohort included Medicaid 306,290 individuals with depression (67.4% female; mean age, 38.6 years), 85,105 patients with bipolar disorder (59.6% female; mean age, 38.0 years), and 71,299 patients with schizophrenia (45.1% female mean age, 40.3 years). After adjustment, the analysis estimated a statistically significant, positive association between value-based payments and behavioral health visits for patients with depression (0.91 visits) and bipolar disorder (1.01 visits). There were no statistically significant changes to primary care visits for patients with depression and bipolar disorder, but value-based payments were associated with reductions in primary care visits for patients with schizophrenia (-1.31 visits). In every diagnostic population, value-based payment was associated with significant reductions in mental health emergency department visits (population with depression: -0.01 visits; population with bipolar disorder: -0.02 visits; population with schizophrenia: -0.04 visits).
