The Relationship Between Rural Health Clinic Use and Potentially Preventable Hospitalizations and Emergency Department Visits Among Medicare Beneficiaries
ConclusionsThe results of our study highlight that the Medicare population using RHCs is at especially high risk for potentially preventable hospitalizations and ED visits. The mechanisms behind this are not well understood and should receive continued attention from policy makers and researchers. (Source: The Journal of Rural Health)

Return ‐on‐Investment (ROI) Analyses of an Inpatient Lay Health Worker Model on 30‐Day Readmission Rates in a Rural Community Hospital
ConclusionsThe BTH model showed a viable ROI to be considered by community hospitals that are part of an ACO or P4P program.

Policy efforts to increase NAS prevention and encourage opioid abuse treatment uptake in pregnant women should address rural and Appalachian disparities. (Source: The Journal of Rural Health)

Correlates of Injection Drug Use Among Rural Appalachian Women
ConclusionsThis study makes an important contribution to understanding factors associated with IDU among rural Appalachian women drug users, which are strongly associated with both relational and health factors. Study findings on the specific factors associated with IDU risk have important implications for tailoring and targeting interventions that should include a focus on the relationship context reducing high‐risk injection practices.
