Abstract

In 2019, California enacted Senate Bill (SB) 542, which created a rebuttable presumption that posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in firefighters and peace officers is a work-related injury and thus compensable under workers' compensation. California has long used presumptions to facilitate workers' compensation claims for many other occupational health conditions in first responders, including cancer, heart trouble, and hernia. SB 542 is intended to encourage care-seeking among first responders and reduce the stigma associated with filing a workers' compensation claim for a mental health condition. The presumption is in effect for injuries occurring between January 1, 2020, and December 31, 2024. The authors of this report evaluate the prevalence of mental health conditions and illnesses among firefighters and peace officers and discuss the implications that this evidence has for policy regarding presumptions established by SB 542. Using a mixed-methods approach, the authors also investigate the frequency of workers' compensation claims involving PTSD, how often these claims are denied, and how first responders experiencing PTSD access mental health care. First responders' mental health and experiences in the workers' compensation system are compared with those of workers in other trauma-exposed occupations. Claims involving PTSD are compared with claims involving other health conditions — such as cancer, heart trouble, and hernias — that are also presumed to be work-related in first responders under California law. The report also contains estimates of the costs to state and local government that might result from presumptive coverage of PTSD in the workers' compensation system, and the authors also discuss stakeholder perspectives on SB 542.

Abstract

The broad goals of New York State's Medicaid Section 1115 Waiver are to enroll a majority of Medicaid beneficiaries into managed care, increase access and service quality, and expand coverage to more low-income New Yorkers. The RAND Corporation was competitively selected as the independent evaluator to assess two components under this 1115 Demonstration Waiver: the Managed Long-Term Care (MLTC) program and the 12-month continuous eligibility policy, which guarantees enrollees Medicaid coverage regardless of changes in income in the 12 months after eligibility determination and enrollment. This final interim evaluation report examines whether these two components have helped achieve the program's goals. The RAND team's analyses show that the Demonstration has expanded access to managed care through mandatory MLTC enrollment and 12-month continuous eligibility. The team found no evidence of a significant change in patient safety or quality of care. The authors note that, although this means that there is no evidence the Demonstration achieved the goal of improving quality of care, increasing access without compromising quality of care is a success in its own right.
