For discharges overall, incarcerated adults had higher rates of hospitalization (ARR\u2009=\u20092.9; 95% CI, 2.2-3.8) than nonincarcerated adults, which was driven mainly by higher rates of inpatient admissions classified as mental health\/substance use (ARR\u2009=\u200911.8; 95% CI, 8.5-16.8) and injury (ARR\u2009=\u20091.9; 95% CI, 1.6-2.2) among incarcerated adults than among nonincarcerated adults. However, surgical (ARR\u2009=\u20090.6; 95% CI, 0.5-0.6) and medical (ARR\u2009=\u20090.8; 95% CI, 0.7-0.9) admissions were lower among incarcerated adults than among nonincarcerated adults. Overall, incarcerated adults had lower inpatient mortality during their length of stay (ARR\u2009=\u20090.4; 95% CI, 0.4-0.5) than nonincarcerated adults, which was consistent by hospital service line.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Considering hospitalization and mortality together offers a clear view of health care use among incarcerated adults and underscores the need for integrated correctional\u2013hospital data systems to inform public health practice and policy.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/00333549251414402","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,17]],"date-time":"2026-02-17T06:25:46Z","timestamp":1771309546000},"page":"727-736","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Differences in Hospitalization and Inpatient Death Patterns by Incarceration Status in 31 US Jurisdictions, 2021"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"141","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3920-564X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Byron S.","family":"Kennedy","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Health Services Unit, Connecticut Department of Correction, Wethersfield, CT, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Robert P.","family":"Richeson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Health Services Unit, Connecticut Department of Correction, Wethersfield, CT, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Amy J.","family":"Houde","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Health Services Unit, Connecticut Department of Correction, Wethersfield, CT, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","unstructured":"World Prison Brief Institute for Crime & Justice Policy Research.
