Abstract
This brief from the SHARE grant program examines a rich source of US hospital administrative data--the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project (HCUP)--and provides an example of how a SHARE-funded research project led by Dr. Peter Cunningham at Virginia Commonwealth University has used these data to evaluate the impacts of an early ACA Medicaid expansion on utilization-related outcomes at hospitals in California.
