New paper led by Joel Mantilla and Laura Burke shows massive growth in urgent care use among older adults, now more than 1 visit for every 10 older adults. 1 in 15 visits was by an older adult with ADRD. doi.org/10.1001/jamanetworkopen.2025.55345

I am excited to share our AHRQ-funded study examining rates of potential diagnostic error for high-risk emergency admissions among Medicare beneficiaries.

I’m delighted to share our recent work t.co/VGpLro9Kmo suggesting that much of the growth in VA spending on ED visits to non-VA (“community”) EDs is due a shift in payer for ED visits from Medicare to the VA, rather than a large change in where veterans are seeking emergency care.
