Abstract:Relative to beneficiaries with unintentional OOD, more individuals with intentional OOD had no opioid prescription in the study period (39.9% vs. 46.8%, p=0.0004). In our adjusted model, the odds of intentional vs. unintentional OOD was lower among beneficiaries age$65 versus age,65 (OR=0.22; 95%CI=0.16-0.30), Black versus White (OR=0.59; 95%CI=0.42-0.82), and with opioid therapy .90 days versus ,90 days (OR=0.65; 95%CI=0.52-0.80). The odds of mental illness diagnosis was almost 5 times higher among intentiona… Show more
