To achieve these aims, we are analyzing a dataset compiled jointly by the Washington State Department of Health, Health Care Authority, and Department of Social and Health Services. This dataset will consist of Washington Medicaid records of refugees newly arrived and automatically enrolled in 2015 and non-refugee Medicaid patients newly enrolled in 2015, with 36 months of follow-up period for both groups.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"#grants\">Back to Washington grants list<\/a>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Washington Grants Arcora Foundation (2020-2022) UW Morell Award (2015-2018) Arcora Foundation (2020-2022) \u201cImplementation and integration strategies of oral health within medical care among refugees\u2019 resettling clinics in the state of Washington.\u201d Our goal is to conduct formative research for integration of oral health assessments within the mandatory comprehensive medical care that refugees received soon after resettlement in Washington state.
