The diabetic alcoholic: characteristics and treatment outcome.

We had previously found a correlation between a recovering alcoholic's propensity to choose free sugar in his diet and his ability to remain sober. To determine if chronic hyperglycemia in itself is a predictor of sobriety, we examined the outcome of alcoholism treatment in 138 diabetics we could identify among 9000 alcoholism treatment outpatients. In general, the diabetics did no better or worse in alcoholism treatment than the whole clinic population, but a subset of the diabetics, those whose diabetes resulted from pancreatitis or pancreatectomy, did very badly. The implications of these findings for future research are discussed.

Evaluation of Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System, 1984-85.

In this article, we describe the evaluation of the Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System (AHCCCS), Arizona's alternative to the acute care portion of Medicaid. We provide an assessment of implementation of the program's innovative features during its second 18 months of operation, from April 1984 through September 1985. Included in the evaluation are assessments of the administration of the program, provider relations, eligibility, enrollment and marketing, information systems, quality assurance and member satisfaction activities, the relationship of the county governments to AHCCCS, the competitive bidding process, and the plans and their financial status.
