Description

Murphy and co-authors ask whether holding both Medicare and Medicaid helps HIV testing and care for people with schizophrenia. Gaps in HIV care are common for this group. Data came from Medicaid and Medicare files from 2008 to 2012.

Yearly HIV testing odds were 4.9 percent for dual enrollees and 7.4 percent for Medicaid-only patients. Among patients with HIV, staying in care meant two lab checks spaced over ninety days apart within a year. Dual enrollees with opioid use disorder or a sexually passed infection tested most often. Testing was lowest for dual enrollees aged fifty to fifty-nine.
