Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Health Care Access and Utilization among Medicaid Managed Care Beneficiaries.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
This quasi-experimental study examined the impact of a statewide integrated special needs program Health and Recovery Plan (HARP) for individuals with serious mental illness and identified racial and ethnic disparities in access to Medicaid services. Generalized estimating equation negative binomial models were used to estimate changes in service use, difference-in-differences, and difference-in-difference-in-differences in the pre- to post-HARP periods. Implementation of the special needs plan contributed to reductions in racial/ethnic disparities in access and utilization. Notable among those enrolled in the special needs plan was the declining Black-White disparities in emergency room (ER) visits and inpatient stays, but the disparity in non-behavioral health clinic visits remains. Also, the decline of Hispanic-White disparities in ER, inpatient, and clinic use was more evident for HARP-enrolled patients. Health equity policies are needed in the delivery of care to linguistically and culturally disadvantaged Medicaid beneficiaries.
