Focus on the Food and Drug Administration's FDA Adverse Events Reporting System (FAERS) Pharmacovigilance Dataset," Stefania Chiappini, Rachel Vickers-Smith, Daniel Harris, G Duccio Papanti Pelletier, John Martin Corkery, Amira Guirguis, Giovanni Martinotti, Stefano L Sensi, Fabrizio Schifano
Abstract: Care access remains a major social determinant of health. Safety net clinics may not be numerically sufficient to meet the healthcare demand for vulnerable populations. Community pharmacists remain a trusted healthcare provider and serve as first-line care access points. To date, Georgia care access points by safety net clinics and community pharmacies have not been compared.

"The impact of Medicaid expansion on mental health and substance use related inpatient visits," Jayani Jayawardhana
Abstract: Under the Affordable Care Act, many states expanded their Medicaid eligibility, allowing individuals living at or below 138% of the Federal Poverty Level to receive insurance coverage. As a result, forty states and the District of Columbia have expanded Medicaid to date. Although Medicaid expansion is expected to increase access to care in general, it is not evident if it has helped increase access to mental health and substance use-related healthcare, especially in inpatient settings. Therefore, this study examines the impact of Medicaid expansion on mental health and substance use- (MHSU) related inpatient visits and the variation in payer mix.
