Abstract
While the LIP reduced the number of CS dispensed, the program was also associated with increased acquisition of CS prescriptions using non-Medicaid payment. Moreover, beneficiaries acquired greater dosages of dispensed opioids from both Medicaid and non-Medicaid payment sources during lock-in and post-release. Refining LIPs to increase beneficiary access to substance use disorder screening and treatment services and provider use of PDMPs may address important unintended consequences.
