    Abstract Background: The focus and funding of US healthcare is evolving from volume to value-based, and healthcare leaders, managers, payers, and researchers are increasingly focusing on managing populations of patients. Simultaneously, there is increasing interest in getting "upstream" from disease management to promote health and prevent disease. Hence, the term "population health" has both clinical and community-based connotations relevant to the tripartite mission of US medical schools.
    Objective: To seek broad input for the strategic development of the Department of Population Health in a new medical school at a tier 1 research university.
    Design: Focus groups with facilitated consensus development.
    Participants: Eighty-one persons representing the Dell Medical School and other schools at the University of Texas at Austin, city/county government, community nonprofit organizations, and faculty from other local university schools along with selected national academic leaders.
    Approach: Focus groups with subsequent consensus development of emphases identified premeeting by participants by e-mail exchanges.
    Key results: The resulting departmental strategic plan included scope of work, desired characteristics of leaders, and early impact activities in seven areas of interest: community engagement and health equity, primary care and value-based health, occupational and environment medicine, medical education, health services and community-based research, health informatics and data analysis, and global health.
    Conclusions: Medical schools should have a primary focus in population, most effectively at the departmental level. Engaging relevant academic and community stakeholders is an effective model for developing this emerging discipline in US medical schools.

    Abstract Objective: Muscle tension in the head and neck may co-occur with temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD) possibly leading to voice change. Several studies have reported a correlation between TMD and dysphonia. However, literature on TMD and voice-related quality of life (QOL) is scant. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between TMD and self-perceived voice-related QOL impairment.
    Methods: Patients from TMD clinic were prospectively surveyed on voice-related quality of life using the Voice Handicap Index (VHI) questionnaire. Patients were queried using paper and pen upon initial evaluation in dentistry clinic for temporomandibular disorders by a single dentist or dental assistant in the otolaryngology department.
    Results: A total of 53 patients completed the VHI. 80% of patients presenting to TMD clinic had VHI scores above zero, but most had minimal to mild impairment. Forty-two patients had scores between 1 and 86, (average 10.98); 11 patients had a score of zero (20.75%). Total average score: 8.70, range: 0-86, median: 4. Functional average score: 3.13, range: 0-29, median: 1. Physical average score: 3.58. range: 0-25, median: 2. Emotional average score: 1.98, range: 0-32, median: 0; these averages did not differ from historical controls.
    Conclusion: The majority of patients presenting to TMD clinic also presented with some level of voice-related QOL impairment, although minimal and consistent with historical VHI controls. Data indicates that TMD disease may be primarily defined as functionally and physically uncomfortable. Incorporation of interdisciplinary care, with laryngology, speech pathology, physical therapy, counseling, and pain management may be warranted.
    Level of evidence: 4 Laryngoscope, 134:315-317, 2024.

    Abstract Introduction: The Veterans Access, Choice, and Accountability Act of 2014 expands the number of options veterans have to ensure timely access to high-quality care. There are minimal data currently available analyzing the impact and quality of colonoscopy metrics in veterans receiving procedures within the Department of Veterans' Affairs (VA) vs community settings.
    Methods: All patients at our academic VA medical center who were referred to a community care colonoscopy (CCC) for positive fecal immunochemical testing, colorectal cancer screening, and adenoma surveillance from 2015 to 2018 were identified and matched for sex, age, and year of procedure to patients referred for a VA-based colonoscopy (VAC). Metrics measured included time to procedure measured in days, adenoma detection rate (ADR), advanced ADR (AADR), adenomas per colonoscopy, sessile serrated polyp detection rate, cecal intubation rate, bowel preparation quality, and compliance with guideline recommendations for surveillance. Patient comorbidities were also recorded. Variable associations with adenoma detection and compliance with surveillance guidelines were analyzed with univariate and multivariate logistic regression.
    Results: In total, 235 veterans (mean age, 64.6 years, and 95.7% male) underwent a CCC and had an appropriately matched VAC. ADR in the community was 36.9% compared with 62.6% for the VAC group (P < 0.0001). The mean number of adenomas per procedure in the community was 0.77 compared with 1.83 per VAC (P < 0.0001). CCC AADR was 8.9% compared with 18.3% for VAC (P = 0.003). The cecal intubation rate for community colonoscopies was 90.6% compared with 95.3% for VA colonoscopies (P = 0.047). Community care compliance with surveillance guidelines was 74.9% compared with 93.3% for VA (P < 0.0001). This nonconformity was primarily due to recommending a shorter interval follow-up in the CCC group (15.3%) compared with the VAC group (5.5%) (P = 0.0012). The mean time to procedure was 58.4 days (±33.7) for CCC compared with 83.8 days (±38.6) for VAC (P < 0.0001). In multivariate regression, CCC was associated with lower ADR (odds ratio 0.39; 95% confidence interval, 0.20-0.63) and lower compliance with surveillance guidelines (odds ratio 0.21; 95% confidence interval, 0.09-0.45) (P < 0.0001 for both).
    Discussion: Time to colonoscopy was significantly shorter for CCC compared with VAC. However, compared with VA colonoscopies, there was significantly lower ADR, AADR, and surveillance guideline compliance for services rendered by community providers. This impact on quality of care should be further studied to ensure that colonoscopy quality standards for veterans are not compromised by the process of care and site of care.
