Older adults are at high risk for fall-related hospitalizations, yet little is known about care processes and outcomes for autistic older adults. This study compared fall-related hospitalization outcomes between autistic and non-autistic older adults. Using 2013â2021 Medicare inpatient claims, we conducted a retrospective cohort study of beneficiaries aged ⥠65 hospitalized for a fall. Autistic older adults were identified using ICD codes and matched 1:1 to non-autistic peers on demographic, clinical, and geographic factors. Outcomes included length of stay (LOS), receipt of inpatient occupational therapy (OT) or physical therapy (PT), discharge destination, and all-cause 30-day readmission. Multivariable models, stratified by age, adjusted for sociodemographic, clinical, and contextual covariates. Sensitivity analyses controlled for dual Medicaid eligibility. Autistic older adults had longer LOS and were less likely to receive OT during hospitalization than matched non-autistic peers. ..., , # Data from: Comparing autistic and non-autistic older adults' fall-related hospitalization care and outcomes

PROJECT OVERVIEW
\--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This project uses Medicare claims data (Parts A & B) to compare autistic and non-autistic older adults' fall-related hospitalization care and outcomes.
Key components:
\- Data Cleaning: Prepares raw Medicare claims data for analysis.
\- SAS Macros: Creates table 1 and calculates effect size.
\- Table Generation: Produces descriptive and outcome table for cohort.
\- Matched Cohort Analysis: Uses propensity-score matching (1 autistic : ~2 non-autistic ratio).
NOTE: This project uses restricted Medicare data that requires CMS Data Use Agreement (DUA) approval. The datasets cannot be shared publicly.
