AJMC® in the Press, May 14, 2021

Coverage of our peer-reviewed research and news reporting in the health care and mainstream press.

An article by The City Sentinel cited a study published in The American Journal of Managed Care^® (AJMC^®). The study, “Managed Care COVID-19 Outcomes in a Population Health Program,” found similar COVID-19 risk factors between managed care patients and the general population, although a population health program was associated with decreased mortality.

A piece by Latin Post featured AJMC.com's “A Timeline of COVID-19 Vaccine Developments in 2021.” The timeline provides weekly updates on the latest news regarding COVID-19 vaccine distribution this year.

An article posted on Baystreet.ca cited an AJMC^® study titled, “Integrated Delivery Systems: The Cure for Fragmentation.” The study indicated that while no single approach or public policy will fix the fragmented health care system, integrated delivery systems represent an important step in the right direction.
