The following paper describes a program launched recently to combine the efforts of two very different sectors of the outcomes management field--a managed behavioral healthcare company and a research-oriented academic center--and to pragmatically integrate outcomes data collection into routine clinical assessment and treatment processes in the substance abuse treatment field. This program has important implications not only for the behavioral healthcare industry's ability to satisfy external demands for outcomes data, but also as a foundation for better internal management and quality improvement processes.
School-based clinics in St. Paul have provided comprehensive health services, including reproductive health care, for almost two decades. This study examines the effects of those clinics on the birthrates in their respective schools, using a newly developed methodology with numerous advantages over previous methods for estimating student birthrates. Confidentially matching the names of female students from school records with the names of mothers on birth records at the Department of Health provided birthrates for each of the St. Paul public high schools with clinics for each year between 1971 and 1986. The results show that birthrates fluctuated dramatically from one year to the next, but school-wide birthrates were not significantly lower in the years immediately following the opening of a clinic than in the years preceding it.
