Patient and System Factors Associated with Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Ambulatory Care Among Medicaid‐Enrolled Adults with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities
2020
Research Objective
Persons with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) have complex medical needs and experience gaps in care due to their unique needs, and challenges faced by health professionals in responding to them. We characterize New Jersey Medicaid‐enrolled individuals with IDD and examine racial and ethnic (RE) disparities in ambulatory care (AC) quality and the extent to which RE gaps are explained by patient and health system factors. We focus on the potential positive effect of home and community‐based services (HCBS) provided through Medicaid waiver programs in mitigating disparities and improving care.
