Analysis• Collaboration with NYSDOH Office of Quality and

Patient Safety– Access to and experience with Medicaid data

• Identify initial visits to outpatient providers for acute upper respiratory infections (URIs)

• Use pharmacy claims data to identify visits when an antibiotic was prescribed and subsequently filled

• Determine regional rates of prescribing for URIs to better target interventions

Based on: Li P, Metlay JP, Marcus SC, Doshi JA. Factors associated with antimicrobial drug usein Medicaid programs. Emerg Infect Dis (Internet). 2014; 20(5): 829-832. https://dx.doi.org/10.3201/eid2005.130493

The Future• Next Steps

– Additional years– Other conditions,

e.g. pharyngitis, otitis media

– Overall antibiotic prescribing per Medicaid enrollee

– Assess adherence to guidelines

– Other insurers

• Impact– Target other initiatives– Multiple other initiatives

ongoing simultaneously• Difficult to measure

– Continue to follow as additional yearsof data become available
