There is ample evidence that homelessness is associated with inadequate access to essential health services and that African American, Hispanic/Latinx, and rural populations are at high risk for homelessness or its consequences. However, there is insufficient knowledge about gaps in use of specific health services among homeless adults, whether such gaps are greater among minority and rural populations, and the potential of permanent supportive housing (PSH) programs to mitigate these gaps.

The NJ Medicaid program has designated CSHP to conduct the federally required evaluation of its comprehensive waiver. CSHP is studying the impact of waiver policy changes on patient access to care, quality of care, and costs.
